The owner of the restaurant has been trying to better understand costs at the restaurant and has hired a student intern to conduct an ABC study. 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 Serving a party of diners. Serving a diner Serving a drink. Activity Measure.
