Program Plan Intro

Paint Job Estimator

Program Plan:

  • Declare a “main ()” function. Inside this function,
    • Get square feet from the user and store it in a variable “sqfeet”.
    • Get price from the user and store it in a variable “price”.
    • Call the function “estimation()” by passing “sqfeet” and “price” as arguments.
  • Give function definition for “estimation ()”. This function accepts two arguments and stores those arguments in the corresponding parameter variables named “sqfeet”, and “price”. Inside this function,
    • Calculate number of gallons and store it in a variable “gallons”.
    • Calculate total hours of labor and store it in a variable “hoursL”.
    • Calculate paint cost and store it in a variable “cost”.
    • Calculate labor charges and store it in a variable “Lcost”.
    • Calculate total cost and store it in a variable “totalcost”.
    • Finally print the values of “gallons”, “hoursL”, “cost”, “Lcost”, and “totalcost”
  • Call the main() function.

Paint Job Estimator A painting company has determined that for every 115 square feet of wall space, 1 gallon of paint and 8 hours of labor will be required. The company charges $20.00 per hour for labor. Create an application that allows the user to enter the square feet of wall space to be painted and the price of the paint per gallon. The program should display the following data: • The number of gallons of paint required • The hours of labor required • The cost of the paint • The labor charges • The total cost of the paint job
Problem Statement for Stock Transaction Program George uses the services of a brokerage firm to buy and sell stocks. Each time he buys or sells a block of stocks, he must pay the brokerage firm a commission of 1.5% per share.Design a program that allows George to enter the number of shares in the block, the price per share when he bought the block and the price per share when he sold the block. The program should display the amount of money he paid to buy the stock and the amount of the commission. The amount of money he made when he sold the stock and the amount of the commission, the amount of profit (or loss) he madeafter paying for the purchase cost and both commissions. There are three user inputs for this problem: the number of shares in the block, the price per share when the block was bought, the price per share when the block was sold. There is one constant: the percentage of the commission (1.5%) The amount to buy the stock is: number of shares in block * purchase price per…
Requirements You are required to write a program that calculates and prints the bill for Viti Telephone Company. The company offers two types of services: regular and premium: its rate very depending on the type of service. The rates are computed as follows: Regular Service $10.00 plus first 50 minutes are free. Charges for over 50 minutes are $0.20 per minute Premium Service $25.00 plus Calls made from 6.00 AM to 6.00 PM, the first 75 minutes are free and charges over 75 minutes are $0.10 per minute. For Calls made from 6.00 PM to 6.00 AM, the first 100 minutes are free and charges for over 100 minutes are $0.05 per minute. Your program should prompt user to enter an account number, a service code (type char), and the number of minutes service was used. A service code of r or R means regular service; a service code p or P means premium service. Treat any other character as an error. Your program should output the account number, type of service number of minutes the telephone was used…
