• The company has recently changed its total annual compensation policy to improve sales.
  • A salesperson will continue to earn a fixed salary of <Add salary figure from Week Two here>. The current sales target for every salesperson is < Add a target sales figure here (e.g. $120,000)>.
  • The sales incentive will only start when 80% of the sales target is met. The current commission is <Add percentage here> of total sales.
  • If a salesperson exceeds the sales target, the commission will increase based on an acceleration factor. The acceleration factor is <Add a number greater than 1 (e.g. 1.25)>.
  • The application should ask the user to enter annual sales, and it should display the total annual compensation.
  • The application should also display a table of potential total annual compensation that the salesperson could have earned, in $5000 increments above the salesperson’s annual sales, until it reaches 50% above the salesperson’s annual sales.
    • Sample Table: Assuming a total annual sales of $100,000, the table would look like this:
Total Sales Total Compensation
100,000 <<Program calculated value>>
105,000 <<Program calculated value>>
110,000 <<Program calculated value>>
115,000 <<Program calculated value>>
120,000 <<Program calculated value>>
125,000 <<Program calculated value>>
130,000 <<Program calculated value>>
135,000 <<Program calculated value>>
140,000 <<Program calculated value>>
145,000 <<Program calculated value>>
150,000 <<Program calculated value>>

The Java™ application should also meet these technical requirements:

  • The application should have at least one class, in addition to the application’s controlling class.
  • The source code must demonstrate the use of conditional and looping structures.
  • There should be proper documentation in the source code.
