The cost per equivalent unit for conversion using the weighted average method is calculated by adding the costs of beginning work in process, if any, and the costs added during the period, then dividing by the equivalent units of production for the period. Without the specific figures from the figure you're referring to, the correct calculation can't be demonstrated here. However, based on the options provided and assuming the correct answer is among them, $8.00 would be the cost per equivalent unit for conversion if calculated correctly according to the weighted average method.
