Service costing will normally be calculating the cost per hour of delivering a service when the service is a standard service (not unique).

And sir, Services are not unique? Like one service would not be different to other?

They can be different but then we would not use service costing.

However where did you find this question because it is very strange (mentioning work in progress which is not typically a feature of service costing!!)
