Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The weighted average costing method combines the partially completed units in beginning work-in-process inventory with units produced in the current period to determine a weighted average equivalent units of production.
Detailed explanation-2: -Calculate cost per unit: Divide the total cost by the number of units. This calculation includes both completed units and equivalent units. So, if a business completed 4, 000 products and another 1, 000 units got halfway through production, the applicable costs would be divided by 4, 000 + (1, 000/2) = 4, 500 units.
