Answer to Question #263346 in Algorithms for Bigboss0616

Question

Given is GROSS_PAY, draw a program plan, algorithm, and flowchart that will compute for DEDUCTIONS and NET_PAY for employee’s weekly Payroll. Consider the conditions:

If Civil Status = ‘SINGLE’

DEDUCTIONS = GROSS_PAY * 0.03

If Civil Status = ‘MARRIED’

DEDUCTIONS = GROSS_PAY * 0.06

If Civil Status = ‘WIDOW’

DEDUCTIONS = GROSS_PAY * 0.05

If Civil Status = HEAD OF THE FAMILY’

DEDUCTIONS = GROSS_PAY * 0.02

Using the formula:

[NET_PAY = GROSS_PAY – DEDUCTIONS] 

Answer 1

Program Plan:

Available Input:

Civil Status

GROSS_PAY

Processing Requirements:

DEDUCTIONS = GROSS_PAY * TAX

NET_PAY = GROSS_PAY – DEDUCTIONS

Required Output:

NET_PAY

Algorithm:

START

Input:

'Civil Status'

GROSS_PAY

case 1: Civil Status = ‘SINGLE’

DEDUCTIONS = GROSS_PAY * 0.03

case 2: Civil Status = ‘SINGLE’

DEDUCTIONS = GROSS_PAY * 0.06

case 3: Civil Status = ‘SINGLE’

DEDUCTIONS = GROSS_PAY * 0.05

Output: NET_PAY = GROSS_PAY – DEDUCTIONS

case 4: Civil Status = ‘SINGLE’

DEDUCTIONS = GROSS_PAY * 0.02

Output:

NET_PAY = GROSS_PAY – DEDUCTIONS
