Q) Chomp Pet Foods manufactures canned dog food. The firm employs a process costing system for its manufacturing operations. All direct materials are added at the beginning of the process and conversion costs are incurred uniformly throughout the process. In the month of June, the company had 4000 units in beginning work in process that were 60% complete. During June, 7000 units were started and 7600 units were completed and transferred out. At the end of June, there were 3400 units in ending work in process that were 20% complete.

What are the equivalent units of direct material started during June, using the FIFO method?
