Question

Write an application that calculates and displays the weekly salary for an employee. The main() method prompts the user for an hourly pay rate, regular hours, and overtime hours. Create a separate method to calculate overtime pay, which is regular hours times the pay rate plus overtime hours times 1.5 times the pay rate; return the result to the main() method to be displayed. Save the program as Salary.java.

Answer 1

Answer:

// import package

import java.util.*;

// class definition

class Salary

{

   // method to calculate weekly salary

   public static double fun(int p_rate,int r_hour,int o_hour)

   {

       // calculate weekly salary

       double w_salary=(p_rate*r_hour)+(o_hour*p_rate*1.5);

       // return salary

       return w_salary;

   }

   // main method of the class

public static void main (String[] args) throws java.lang.Exception

{

   try{

    // object to read value from user

    Scanner scr=new Scanner(System.in);

   

       System.out.print("enter hourly pay rate: ");

       // read hourly pay rate

       int p_rate=scr.nextInt();

     

       System.out.print("enter regular hours: ");

       //read regular hours

       int r_hour=scr.nextInt();

       

       System.out.print("enter overtime hours : ");

       // read overtime hours

       int o_hour=scr.nextInt();

       // call the method

       System.out.println("weekly salary of an employee :"+fun(p_rate,r_hour,o_hour));

   }catch(Exception ex){

       return;}

}

}

Explanation:

Read hourly pay rate, regular hours and overtime hours from user.Call the method sal() with these parameters.There weekly salary is calculated by multiply regular hours with p_rate and overtime hours with 1.5 time of p_rate.Sum both of them, this will be the weekly salary.return this to main method and print it.

Output:

enter hourly pay rate: 50                                                                                                  

enter regular hours: 35                                                                                                    

enter overtime hours : 15                                                                                                  

weekly salary of an employee :2875.0
