Attraction Corporation produces specially machined parts. The parts are produced in batches in one continuous manufacturing process. Each part is custom produced and requires special engineering design activity (based on customer specifications). Once the design is completed, the equipment can be set up for batch production. Once the batch is completed, a sample is taken and inspected to see if the parts are within the tolerances allowed. Thus, the manufacturing process has four activities: engineering, setups, machining, and inspecting. In addition, there is a sustaining process with two activities: providing utilities (plantwide) and providing space. Costs have been assigned to each activity using direct tracing and resource drivers: Engineering $1,000,000 Setups 900,000 Machining 2,000,000 Inspection 800,000 Providing space 250,000 Providing utilities 180,000 ​ Activity drivers for each activity have been identified and their practical capacities listed: Machine hours 25,000 Setups 200 Engineering hours 5,000 Inspection hours 2,500 ​ The costs of facility-level activities are assigned using machine hours. ​ What is (are) the facility-level activity(ies)?

Cost accumulation is the determination of the dollar amounts of direct materials, direct labor and overhead costs, and cost measurement is the recognition and recording of costs.

Golden Ring Company produces two types of product: Large and Larger. Two work orders for two batches of the products are shown below, along with some additional cost information:   ​ Large Larger ​ Work Order 10 Work Order 11 Direct materials (actual costs) $45,000 $75,000 ​ ​ ​ Applied conversion costs: ​ ​ Mixing ? ? Cooking $12,000 $12,000 Bottling $10,000 $15,000 ​ ​ ​ Batch size (bottles) 5,000 5,000 ​ In the Mixing Department, conversion costs are applied on the basis of direct labor hours. Budgeted conversion costs for the department for the year were $50,000 for labor and $125,000 for overhead. Budgeted direct labor hours were 2,500. It takes three minutes to mix the ingredients needed for each bottle. Large (Work Order 10) and Larger (Work Order 11) flow through the Mixing Department first, then through the Cooking and Bottling departments. What is Golden Ring Company’s journal entry to apply conversion costs in the Mixing Department for Work Order 10?
