algorithm that compute and print

[true]

These is a question from previous examination paper example.

Write your answers in the space provided below the question
Determine the marks for a specific question before you answer the question
A program is required to read a customer’s name, a purchase amount and a tax code.
The tax code has been validated and will be one of the following:
0 – tax exempt (0%)
1 – state sales tax only (3%)
2 – federal and state sales tax (5%)
3 – special sales tax (7%)
Design the algorithm for a program that must compute the sales tax and the total amount
due, and print the customer’s name, purchase amount, sales tax and total amount due. A
case structure MUST be used.

My solution would be:

tax?


tax exempt state sales federal and special sales tax
tax only state sales tax


0% 3% 5% 7%




print:customer’ s name, purchase amount, sales tax and total amount due.

The experts on this site are more than happy to help you with your problems but they cannot do your assignment/program for you. Attempt the assignment/program yourself first and post questions regarding any difficulties you have or about a particular function of the code that you don't know how to achieve.

Please read the Posting Guidelines and particularly the Coursework Posting Guidelines.

Then when you are ready post a new question in this thread.
