OP. WIP 400   FINISHED FROM OP WIP 400 100 400 60 240  
INTRODUCED 1000   FINISHED FROM INTRODUCED 400 100 400 100 400  
      CL. WIP 600 75 450 20 120  
  1400     1400   1250   760  

Apart from Op. WIP, above total equivalent units of material for the period (i.e., introduced and closing WIP are 850 units).

 

@ CMA Sanjay Hakhu: thank you for the Answer. I am actually getting confused on why closing WIP is calculated 75%. If you can explain that part that would be help ful.

Since the process is complete only 20%(since the degree of completion quoted relates to labour and overhead costs), the materials added is 3/4 th only( .e., 75%).
