Answer is Option c) provide a means of assigning cost to partially completed units
In process costing there is always opening work in process and closing work in process which is partially completed. Hence these units are calculated in terms of equivalent units and then cost is calculated per equivalent units.
Units transferred to next department/Finished goods is multiplied by cost per equivalent unit . Closing stock is also calculated by multiplying equivalent units and cost per equivalent unit to arrive at Closing stock value.
Equivalent units can be calculated in 2 methods- FIFO and Weighted average method
