ICS$-141$: Problem Solving with Java

Lab $3$: Weekly Wage Calculator

Due Date: $01/25/2024$

During the lecture we studied how selection statements are implemented in Java. This exercise

tests our understanding and the application of the selection statements.

Problem:

Supposing a company has two types of employees, which includes salary workers and hourly

wage workers, and both types of employees are paid weekly. For the salary workers, their

weekly pay is calculated by dividing their annual salary by $52.$ In the case of the hourly

employees, their weekly pay is determined by the number of hours they worked for the

duration of the week. The regular hourly pay for the hourly workers is $$25\mathrm{.}00$ an hour. If an

hourly employee works over $40$ hours during the week, the extra hours $($i$.$e$.$ total number of

hours $40$ hours$)$ is paid at one$-$and$-$half times the regular hourly rate.

Write a program in Java to calculate an employee$$s weekly pay. The program does the

following:

$1.$ Prompts the user to enter the employee$$s name.

$2.$ Prompts the user to enter employee type: either $$S$$ for salary employee or $$H$$ for

hourly employee. The program can also accept the lower case $$s$$ or $$h$$ at the prompt.

$3.$ If the user enters $$S$$ or $$s$,$ the program would prompt the user to enter the annual

salary for the worker, and then calculate the weekly pay.

$4.$ If the user enters $$H$$ or $$h$,$ the program prompts the user to enter the number of

hours accumulated for the week. If the total number of hours is less than or equal to $40,$

it calculates the regular weekly wage. If the total hours for the week is exceeds $40,$ then

the program calculate weekly pay to include the extra overtime pay.

$5.$ The program displays the employees name, and the type of wage, and the weekly pay.
