Answer:

True

Explanation:

Equivalent units are notional whole units which represent incomplete work and are used to apportion cost between work progress and completed work. These units are determined as follows:

Equivalent units = Degree of work done(%) × units of inventory

Equivalent units

Direct material:

Balance of work = 100-80 = 20%

Equivalent of work to be added = 20% × 40,000 = 8,000

Labour

Balance of work = 100-50= 50%

Equivalent of work to be added =50% × 40,000 = 20,000 units

                                    Equivalent of work to be added(units)

Material                               8000                                  

Labour                               20,000
