Tax computation
Program plan:
- • Define the class “TaxComputer”.
- ○ Declare the necessary constant variables.
- ○ Define the method “changeBasicRateTo()”.
- ■ Assign “newRate” into the variable “basicRate”.
- ○ Define the method “changeLuxuryRateTo()”.
- ■ Assign “newRate” into the variable “luxuryRate”.
- ○ Define the method “computeCostBasic()”.
- ■ Calculate “tax”, and “price”.
- ■ Return the value.

Program to display the tax computation of the computer.
Explanation of Solution
Program:
//Define the class
public class TaxComputer
{
//Declare the necessary constant variables
private static double basicRate = 4.0;
private static double luxuryRate = 10.0;
//Define the function changeBasicRateTo()
public static void changeBasicRateTo(double newRate)
{
/*Assign "newRate" into the variable “basicRate”*/
basicRate = newRate;
}
//Define the function changeLuxuryRateTo()
public static void changeLuxuryRateTo(double newRate)
{
/*Assign "newRate" into the variable “luxuryRate”*/
luxuryRate = newRate;
}
//Define the function computeCostBasic()
public static double computeCostBasic(double price)
{
//Calculate the “tax”
double tax = price * basicRate / 100;
//Calculate the “price”
price = price + tax;
//Return the value
return roundToNearestPenny(price);
}
//Define the function computeCostLuxury()
public static double computeCostLuxury(double price)
{
//Calculate the "tax"
double tax = price * luxuryRate / 100;
//Calculate the "price"
price = price + tax;
//Return the value
return roundToNearestPenny(price);
}
//Define the function roundToNearestPenny()
private static double roundToNearestPenny(double price)
{
//Calculate the "price"
price = price * 100;
price = java.lang.Math.round(price);
//Return the value
return price/100;
}
//Define the main() function
public static void main(String[] args)
{
//Print the statement
System.out.println("Testing the basic rate computation.");
//Print the statement
System.out.println(" Item price no tax:10.00");
//Print the statement
System.out.println("cost with 4% tax: "+ TaxComputer.computeCostBasic(10.00));
//Print the statement
System.out.println("Testing the basic rate computation.");
//Call the function changeBasicRateTo()
TaxComputer.changeBasicRateTo(7.5);
//Print the statement
System.out.println(" Item price no tax: 10.00");
//Print the statement
System.out.println("cost with 7.5% tax: "+ TaxComputer.computeCostBasic(10.00));
//Print the statement
System.out.println("Testing the luxury rate computation.");
//Print the statement
System.out.println(" Item price no tax: 2019.25");
//Print the statement
System.out.println("cost with 10% tax: "+ TaxComputer.computeCostLuxury(2019.25));
//Print the statement
System.out.println("Testing the luxury rate computation.");
//Call the function changeLuxuryRateTo()
TaxComputer.changeLuxuryRateTo(20.0);
//Print the statement
System.out.println(" Item price no tax: 2019.25");
//Print the statement
System.out.println("cost with 20% tax: "+ TaxComputer.computeCostLuxury(2019.25));
//Print the statement
System.out.println("Testing the basic rate again, should still be 7.5%.");
//Print the statement
System.out.println(" Item price no tax: 210.99");
//Print the statement
System.out.println("cost with 7.5% tax: "+ TaxComputer.computeCostBasic(210.99));
}
}
Output:
Testing the basic rate computation.
Item price no tax: 10.00
cost with 4% tax: 10.4
Testing the basic rate computation.
Item price no tax: 10.00
cost with 7.5% tax: 10.75
Testing the luxury rate computation.
Item price no tax: 2019.25
cost with 10% tax: 2221.18
Testing the luxury rate computation.
Item price no tax: 2019.25
cost with 20% tax: 2423.1
Testing the basic rate again, should still be 7.5%.
Item price no tax: 210.99
cost with 7.5% tax: 226.81

The JS file should the completion of the task, and all necessary testing, so that just loading the file will complete the task with enough different inputs to ensure it works. Even Numbers [3 marks] Create a function that determines if a provided number is even. Define an array of numbers, then on the array use the appropriate array iterator to determine if the array contains only even numbers using the function you defined. Output the results, and test with several arrays. Long Names [3 marks] Define an array of names. Use an iterator to retrieve a new array containing only the names longer then 12 characters. Your iterator should be passed an anonymous arrow function.
