What are two alternative calculations that can be used to either verify the number of equivalent units or to obtain the number initially?
One alternative method of calculating equivalent units for weighted average is to determine units transferred out and add to that the equivalent units of ending work in process. Another alternative method of calculating equivalent units for FIFO is to determine equivalent units of production under weighted average and subtract the beginning work in process equivalent units that were completed in the last period. Both of these methods may be used to "check" original answers.
