Write a program that asks for the principal, the annual interest rate, and the number of times the interest is compounded. It should display a report similar to the following: Interest Rate: 4.25% Times Compounded: 12 Principal: $ 1000.00 Interest: 43.33 Final balance: $ 1043.33
Prompt
Problem: A company wants a program that will calculate the weekly paycheck for an employee based on how many hours they worked. For this
company, an employee earns $20 an hour for the first 40 hours that they work. The employee earns overtime, $30 an hour, for each hour they
work above 40 hours.
Example: If an employee works 60 hours in a week, they would earn $20/hr for the first 40 hours. Then they would earn $30/hr for the 20 hours
they worked overtime. Therefore, they earned: ($20/hr 40hrs)+($30/hr 20 hrs) $800+ $600 = $1400 total.
For this assignment, you must create pseudocode and a flowchart to design a program that will calculate an employee's weekly paycheck.
- Write pseudocode to design a programming solution by outlining a series of steps and using appropriate indentation and keywords. As you
write your pseudocode, be sure to consider the following:
What input does the computer need?
What steps does the program need to follow to process the input? What output should…
METHODOLOGY
A bookstore owner wants you to write a program that calculates the gross pay of an employee.
The input to the program is the number of hours the employee works in one week and the employee’s hourly pay rate.
The program is to calculate the employee’s gross pay including the possibility of overtime pay.
Regular pay is the number of hours the employee worked (up to 40 hours) times the hourly rate.
The program is to compute an overtime pay if the employee worked more than 40 hours.
All hours beyond 40 should be multiplied to 1.5 for the OT differential pay
The program should output the worker’s regular pay, overtime time, and the gross pay (sum of the regular pay and overtime pay).
Create an IPO and flowchart

If theamount deposited is P, the stated interest rate is r, and interest is compounded m timesper year, then the balance in the account after one year is P⋅(1+rm)m. For instance, if$1000 is deposited at 3% interest compounded quarterly (that is, 4 times per year), thenthe balance after one year is1000⋅(1+.034)4=1000⋅1.00754=$1,030.34.Interest rates with different compounding periods cannot be compared directly.The concept of APY (annual percentage yield) must be used to make the comparison. TheAPY for a stated interest rate r compounded m times per year is defined byAPY=(1+rm)m−1.(The APY is the simple interest rate that yields the same amount of interest after oneyear as the compounded annual rate of interest.)

While spacecraft A doubles its speed every day, spacecraft B triples its speed in the same period. Given their initial speeds, your task is to determine how many days spacecraft B will take to travel faster than spacecraft A. If the initial speed of spacecraft A is 7, it will be 14 after 1 day, 28 after 2 days, and so on. If the initial speed of spacecraft B is 4, it will be 12 after 1 day, 36 after 2 days, and so on. If the initial speed of spacecrafts A and B are 7 and 4, respectively, B will be faster than A after 2 days, as the speed of A will be 28 and the speed of B will be 36.

- Assignment Write a program that tracks how much steps the user walks in total in a day and reports if the daily target is reached or not. The program will keep reading double values, each representing steps walked during an individual activity within a day (stepsWalked) until either the user enters a negative value or the daily target of 5000 steps is met. If the user enters a negative number, the program should print total steps walked as a double. Otherwise, if the target is exactly reached, the program should simply print "Target is reached", finally if the target is surpassed the program should print the text "Target is surpassed by", followed by the excess amount above the target as a double, and finally printing the text "steps". NOTE: YOU MUST use a repetitive statement in this question. NOTE: Each stepsWalked value will be given as a non-negative value. You do NOT need to check this.
