Morphology
wrap + up
The meaning 'to finish' is a metaphorical extension of the literal sense of 'wrap' (to cover or enclose) combined with the particle 'up' that signals completion, so a learner who knows the parts can often infer it. However, this is a phrasal-verb pattern where the particle's contribution is somewhat idiomatic and not fully predictable across contexts or languages, so it is only partially transparent.
Etymology
Wrap up comes from the image of finishing a task by tying the last string to wrap it up, like closing the final part of a package. So it means 'to finish or complete' an activity.
