Chapter 2, Problem 8PP

You have just purchased a stereo system that cost $1,000 on the following credit plan: no down payment, an interest rate of 18% per year (and hence 1.5% per month), and monthly payments of $50. The monthly payment of $50 is used to pay the interest and whatever is left is used to pay part of the remaining debt. Hence, the first month you pay 1.5% of $1,000 in interest. That is $15 in interest. So, the remaining $35 is deducted from your debt, which leaves you with a debt of $965.00. The next month you pay interest of 1.5% of $965.00, which is $14.48. Hence, you can deduct $35.52 (which is $50 – $14.48) from the amount you owe. Write a program that will tell you how many months it will take you to pay off the loan, as well as the total amount of interest paid over the life of the loan. Use a loop to calculate the amount of interest and the size of the debt after each month. (Your final program need not output the monthly amount of interest paid and remaining debt, but you may want to write a preliminary version of the program that does output these values.) Use a variable to count the number of loop iterations and hence the number of months until the debt is zero. You may want to use other variables as well. The last payment may be less than $50. Do not forget the interest on the last payment. If you owe $50, then your monthly payment of $50 will not pay off your debt, although it will come close. One month’s interest on $50 is only 75 cents.

"You have been asked to create a guessing game with four players. The players will be asked to guess which word will be selected next and earn points for each correct guess." The game works as follows: First: At the start of the game: Each of the four players is asked to enter their name and the amount of money they wish to bet on the game (only positive values less than $100 are allowed). The total of all four bets is the price money for the game. •The players will be asked to select which set of words they wish to use for the game. The options are: Fruit Colors Animals Each set of words must have at least seven options (You may choose your own words for each set). Once the players select a set of words the computer will display the full list of options. For example: You have selected the Fruit word set. The possible words are: Apple, Orange, Banana, Kiwi, Strawberry, Grape, Cherry Second: Each game will consist of seven rounds. Each round goes as follows:             Each player is…
Interest on a credit card’s unpaid balance is calculated using the average daily balance. Suppose that netBalance is the balance shown in the bill, payment is the payment made, d1 is the number of days in the billing cycle, and d2 is the number of days payment is made before billing cycle. Then, the average daily balance is: averageDailyBalance =netBalance x d1-payment x d2d1 If the interest rate per month is, say, 0.0152, then the interest on the unpaid balance is: Interest= averageDailyBalance * 0.0152 Write a program using c++ compiler that accepts as inputnetBalance, payment, d1,d2, and interest rate per month. The program outputs the interest. Format your output to two decimal places.
