We have to allocate costs only for the production during the period. If produced was only 1000 then how can one sell 2000? Only possible explanation would be that balance 1000 units are out of the opening stock. We need to consider only current period production for appointment of joint cost.

In the question units sold as well as units produced is given right even then only units produced are taken and used for computing net realisable value ..why we didn't take units sold ?
