Debit to contract assets for $100,000

Explanation:

Data given in the question

Total manufacturing cost = $185,000

Standalone price for product 1 = $100,000

Standalone price for product 1 = $85,000

By considering the above information, since the product 1 has been transferred which means we debited the contract assets for $100,000 as it increased the asset account
