Assuming beginning work in process is zero, the equivalent units of production computed using FIFO versus weighted average will have the following relationship:

FIFO equivalent units will be greater than weighted$-$average equivalent units.

FIFO equivalent units will be less than weighted$-$average equivalent units.

Weighted$-$average equivalent units are always greater than FIFO equivalent units.

Weighted$-$average equivalent units will be equal to FIFO equivalent units.
