There are a few parts to this report.

First there's the units charged to production:
Inventory in process at the beginning of the period
+________Received from materials_____________
Total units accounted for by the department

Keep in mind this is a mathematical check, the total accounted for should match the total units to be assigned cost in the last part of the problem.

the SECOND part is the units to be assigned cost:
                        

  whole units direct materials conversion
BEGINNING inventory (% completed) inventory at

Last is the Unit costs:

Total costs for month


  Direct materials Conversion Total
Total costs for month given in problem given in problem  
total equivalent units total units to be assigned costs in the direct materials column from step 2 total units to be assigned costs in the conversion column from step 2  
Cost per equivalent unit divide cost for month by equivalent units divide cost for month by equivalent units  
costs charged to production:
