How would you calculate in Java, within the code below, the tax of how many hours an employee worked, and how much they get paid per hour?

Heres the code I have so far:

import java.util.Scanner;

public class PDA { //personal digital assistant (another name for calculator) public static void main(String[] args) { final double incomeTax = 0.09; final double socialSecurityTax = 8.75; double pay, netPay; double hours, payPerHour;

Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in); //user input System.out.println("Enter your firstname: "); String employeeFirstName = sc.nextLine();

System.out.println("Enter your lastname: "); String employeeLastName = sc.nextLine();

System.out.println("Enter your pay per hour: "); payPerHour = sc.nextDouble();

System.out.println("Enter hours worked: "); hours = sc.nextDouble();

pay = payPerHour * hours; //calculating the employee's net pay netPay = pay - (pay * (incomeTax/ 100.0) - (pay * (socialSecurityTax / 100.0))); System.out.println(" Employee: " + employeeLastName + ", " + employeeFirstName); //output System.out.println("*******************************"); System.out.printf("Gross Pay: $%.2f ", pay); System.out.printf("Taxes: tIncome Tax: $" + incomeTax); System.out.printf(" tSS tax: $" + socialSecurityTax); System.out.println(" *******************************"); System.out.printf("Net Pay: $%.2f ", netPay); } }

I have the output the way it should be just not the tax column since it's not supposed to output just 0.09 and 8.75, but the actual calculation.
