The intern, in consultation with the owner, identified three major activities. The intern then completed the first-stage allocations of costs to the activity cost pools, using data from last month's operations. The results appear below: Activity Cost Pool Activity Measure Serving a party of Number of parties diners served Serving a diner Number of diners served Serving a drink Number of drinks ordered The above costs include all of the costs of the restaurant except for organization-sustaining costs such as rent, property taxes, and top- management salaries.
