The total manufacturing cost per unit is calculated by adding the cost per equivalent unit of materials and the cost per equivalent unit of conversion. Materials cost per unit is $60,000 / 10,000 = $6.00, and conversion cost per unit is $90,000 / 20,000 = $4.50. Therefore, the total cost per unit is $6.00 + $4.50 = $10.50.
