Aspects associated with the individual include self-worth, sense of accomplishment, and a positive identity (Fontaine, 2009), where as mental illness is the disharmony someone is experiencing. This disharmony affects not only the individual but their friends and family as well as the surrounding community. This disharmony causes the person to be unable to function properly in many aspects of their life (Fontaine, 2009). Disco Di started to display signs of mental illness from the young age of 12.

Motion pictures are a key driver of the market for entertainment products, one of the largest export markets in US.

Woodstock Woodstock was a rock music festival that took place near Woodstock, New York in a town called Bethel. The festival took place over three days, August 15, 16, and 17, 1969. The original plan for Woodstock was an outdoor rock festival, "three days of peace and music" in the Catskill village of Woodstock. The festival was expected to attract 50,000 to 100,000 people. It was estimated that an unexpected 400,000 or more people attended. If it weren't for Woodstock, rock and roll wouldn't be where it is today. Woodstock became a symbol of the 1960s American counterculture and a milestone in the history of rock music. The original plan for Woodstock had been to build a recording studio in the town of Woodstock (Sandow,

The “hippies” of the 1960s had many effects on the American society. The visual appearance and lifestyle of the hippies were in sharp contrast to the conservative nature of the older generation, which defined them as a counterculture. The hippie lifestyle was based on free love, rock music, shared property, and drug experimentation. They introduced a new perspective on drugs, freedom of expression, appearance, music, attitudes toward work, and held a much more liberal political view than mainstream society.

We agree with the way the cost per division is being calculated. However, we propose a different way to allocate indirect cost per product based on the number of hours calculated for each product and an estimate of the number of units needed for special effects, concept/design, and artist relations related to each product. Based on the calculations provided by Mr. King, we used the cost per hour or unit shown on the Resource-Based Cost Report to calculate the costs of each resource by product line. Once we had the cost resource-based, we calculated a percentage for Cassettes, CDs, and Digital Sound Tracks (DST). The percentage was applied to the “indirect costs allocated from central office”, shown on the product-type cost report, for each of the previously mentioned products. When we got the indirect costs, we noticed that DST absorbed most of those costs, which increased from $53,227 to $105,590. DST requires a lot more of recording studio hours, extensive special effects, new concept design, and continued artists relations. When comparing the indirect costs for Cassettes and CDs calculated using the Product Type-Based and the Service-Based systems, we noticed that both products’ indirect costs decreased by using the Service-Based system. Cassettes require less recording studio hours, moderate special effects, none modification to the

     Bellbottoms, afros, music, sex and drugs can best describe the Disco Era. The Disco Era was a care-free time in which there were no rules. People danced the nights away. Most of the people of the Disco Era lived normal lives, working nine to five jobs during the week, but when the weekend rolled around they put on their bellbottoms and dancing shoes and hit up the Disco Clubs. This is an era that will never be forgotten but will probably never be relived.
