Explanation of Solution
Production Report:
The document comprises all the activities of process department related to manufacturing which occurs; in a particular period of time is called production report. It helps to identify the efficiency of process department.

Therefore, cost per equivalent unit, equivalent units and total cost are $0.1136, 628,400 capsules and $24,041 respectively.
Notes:
1. Use this formula to calculate cost per equivalent unit:
2. In table to calculate cost of unit started and completed multiply the unit started and completed and unit cost as shown in table.
3. In table to calculate cost of goods in EWIP, multiply units in EWIP and unit cost as shown in table.
