Transferred in production	12,200
Completed and transferred out to Boiling in August	7,200
Ending Work-in-Process Inventory	5,000

Beginning Work-in-Process Inventory	$0
Costs added during August
Direct materials	2,100,000
Direct labor	1,030,000
Manufacturing overhead	600,000
Total costs added during August	$3,730,000

The ending Work-in-Process Inventory is 100% and 70% complete with respect to direct materials and conversion costs, respectively. Compute the equivalent units of production (EUP) for direct materials and for conversion costs for the month of August. The weighted-average method is used.
