Answer- Equivalent units of production are calculated because = some units in ending work in process are incomplete at the end of the period.
Explanation- Equivalent units are calculated because a department usually has some partially completed units in its beginning and ending inventory.

Alchemy Manufacturing produces a pesticide chemical and uses process costing. There are three processing departments—Mixing, Refining, and Packaging. On January 1, the first department—Mixing—had no beginning inventory. During January, 44,000 fl. oz. of chemicals were started in production. Of these, 32,000 fl. oz. were completed and 12,000 fl. oz. remained in process. In the Mixing Department, all direct materials are added at the beginning of the production process, and conversion costs are applied evenly throughout the process. The weighted average...
