The equivalent units completed during the current period plus the equivalent units in ending inventory
The purpose of the equivalent-unit computation is to
assist the business in determining the cost assigned to ending inventory and work-in-process inventory
Process costing should be used to assign costs to products when
the units produced are similar
A distinct feature of the FIFO process-costing method is that the
work done on beginning inventory before the current period is kept separate from the work done during the current period in the calculation of equivalent units
