    Explanation:

    Equivalent Units E. U) are notional whole units which represent incomplete work and are used to apportion costs between between work in progress and completed work.

    Equivalent Units = Degree of completion (%) * units

    Under the weighted average method of valuation, to account for completed units, it is assumed that the entire degree of work required is done in the period under consideration. So there is no separation of the completed units into opening inventory and fully worked.

    so we assumed that the 688,000 units were started and completed in the same period.

    Item unit Equivalent unit

    Completed and trans. 688,000 688,000 * 100% = 688,000

    Closing WIP 85,600 85,600 * 40% = 34,240

    Total equivalent unit 720,240
