Chapter 3, Problem 10PE

Monthly Sales Tax

A retail company must file a monthly sales tax report listing the total sales for the month, and the amount of state and county sales tax collected. The state sales tax rate is 4 percent and the county sales tax rate is 2 percent. Design a modular program that asks the user to enter the total sales for the month. From this figure, the application should calculate and display the following:

The amount of county sales tax
The amount of state sales tax
The total sales tax (county plus state)

In the pseudocode, represent the county tax rate (0.02) and the state tax rate (0.04) as named constants.

Write a FancyCar class to support basic operations such as drive, add gas, honk horn, and start engine. FancyCar.java is provided with method stubs. Follow each step to gradually complete all methods. Note: This program is designed for incremental development. Complete each step and submit for grading before starting the next step. Only a portion of tests pass after each step but confirm progress. The main() method includes basic method calls. Add statements in main() as methods are completed to support development mode testing. Step 0. Declare private fields for miles driven as shown on the odometer (int), gallons of gas in tank (double), miles per gallon or MPG (double), driving capacity (double), and car model (String). Note the provided final variable indicates the gas tank capacity of 14.0 gallons. Step 1 (2 pts). 1) Complete the default constructor by initializing the odometer to five miles, tank is full of gas, miles per gallon is 24.0, and the model is "Old Clunker". 2)…
