Equivalents units in Process costing:

In Process costing, the Equivalent units concept is important to compute the actual cost associated with the units completed during the period and units remained in process at the end. The main difference between unit completed and units in process at end is that the units completed has been processed at 100% degree with respect to each element of cost and the units in process is treated as units which may not have completed at 100% degree for some or all elements of cost till the end of period. Therefore, the equivalent units concept is important where the units in process shall be taken in line of completed units by reducing its units on the basis of degree of completion of in process units for each element of cost.

The Total equivalent units of production with respect to each element of cost shall be computed as per weighted average method.
