Question
Read the following case study, which describes the data requirements for a motorcycle rental company. The motorcycle rental company has several branches throughout the United Kingdom. The data held on each branch is the branch address made up of street, city, state, postcode, and telephone number. Each branch is given a branch number, which is unique throughout the company. Each branch is allocated staff, which includes a Manager. The Manager is responsible for the day-to-day running of a given branch. The data held on a member of staff is his or her name, position, and salary. Each member of staff is given a staff number, which is unique throughout the company. Each branch has a motorcycle inventory for rental. The data held on a motorcycle is the motorcycle number, motorcycle category, motorcycle color, motorcycle brand/manufacturer, number of seat and daily rental rate. The motorcycle number uniquely identifies each motorcycle. However, in most cases, there are several types of each motorcycle at a branch, and the individual motorcycle is identified using the motorcycle number. A motorcycle is given a category such as cruiser, sport, standard, dual-purpose, and dirt bike. The status indicates whether a motorcycle is available for rent. Before hiring a motorcycle from the company, a customer must first register as a member of a local branch. The data held on a member is the first and last name, address, and the date that the member registered at a branch. Each member is given a member number, which is unique throughout all branches of the company. Once registered, a member is free to rent motorcycles, up to a maximum of three at any one time. The data held on each motorcycle rented is the rental number, the full name and number of the member, the motorcycle number, motorcycle type, and daily rental, and the date the motorcycle is rented out and date returned. The rental number is unique throughout the company.
