Interest Earned
Assuming there are no deposits other than the original investment, the balance in a savings account after one year may be calculated as
• Where Principal is the balance in the account
• Rate is the annual interest rate,
• T is the number of times the interest is compounded during a year (e.g., T is 4 if the interest is compounded quarterly).

Interest Rate: 4.25%
Times Compounded: 12
Principal: $ 1000 .00
Interest: $ 43 .33
Final balance: $ 1043.33

- 4. During each summer, John and Jessica grow vegetables in their backyard and buy seeds and fertilizer from a local nursery. The nursery carries different types of vegetable fertilizers in various bag sizes. When buying a particular fertilizer, they want to know the price of the fertilizer per pound and the cost of fertilizing per square foot. The following program prompts the user to enter the size of the fertilizer bag, in pounds, the cost of the bag, and the area, in square feet, that can be covered by the bag. The program should output the desired result. However, the program contains logic errors. Find and correct the logic errors so that the program works properly. // Logic errors. #include #include using namespace std; int main() { double costs double area; double bagsize; cout > bagsize; cout > cost; cout > area; cout << endl; cout << "The cost of the fertilizer per pound is: $" << bagsize / cost << endl; cout << "The cost of fertilizing per square foot is: $" << area / cost << endl; return 0; }arrow_forward25. Repeat Programming Exercise 24, but the wire is to be bent in the form of a circle. In this case, the user specifies the length of the wire and the program outputs the radius and area of the circle. (You may assume that . Also declare it as a named constant.)arrow_forward(Statistics) This is the formula for the standard normal deviate, z, used in statistical applications: z=(X)/ X is a single value. refers to an average value. refers to a standard deviation. Using this formula, you need to write a program that calculates and displays the value of the standard normal deviate when X=85.3,=80,and=4. a. For this programming problem, how many outputs are required? b. How many inputs does this problem have? c. Determine a formula for converting input items into output items. d. Test the formula written for Exercise 7c, using the data given in the problem.arrow_forward
- An Auto Insurance Program Example - Write a program to determine the cost of an automobile insurance premium, based on driver's age and the number of accidents that the driver has had. The basic insurance charge is 500 Rs. There is a surcharge of 100 Rs if the driver is under 25 and there is an additional surcharge for accidents as can be seen below: No. of accidents Accident Surcharge 1 50 2 125 3 250 4 375 5 575 6 or more No insurance Note: Use switch cases when you check the total number of accidents.arrow_forwardSingular to Plural. Create a program that accepts a word in singular, and produces the corresponding plural. Use the following rules: a. If the word end in ‑s, -ss, -sh, -ch, -x, or –z, then add –es to the word. For example, the plural of tax is taxes b. If the word ends in -fe, then replace the ending with –ves. For example, the plural of wolf is wolves c. If the word ends in y and the previous letter is a vowel, then add –s to the word. For example, the plural of boy is boys d. If the word ends in y and the previous letter is a consonant, then change the –y ending with –ies. For example, the plural of city is cities e. If the word does not meet the criteria above, then add –s to it.arrow_forwardCrispies Bagels and Bites wants a program that allows its salesclerks to enter the number of bagels, donuts, and cups of coffee a customer orders. Bagels are 99 cents, donuts are 75 cents, and coffee is $1.20 per cup. The program should calculate and display the total price of the customer’s order. First, create an IPO chart for this problem, and then desk-check the algorithm twice. For the first desk-check, use 0, 12, and 2 as the number of bagels, donuts, and cups of coffee, respectively. For the second desk-check, use 2, 6, and 1.arrow_forward
- C++ Programming point* go_far(point* other) Return the point bearing the x- and the y- coordinates of whichever x- and y-coordinates is further from the origin. Identify which of the two points have the furthest x- and y-coordinates independently. Example: this point has (-5, 1) and the other point has (4, 9). In the x-coordinate of the two points, -5 is further from the origin than 4. In the y-coordinate of the two points, 9 is further from the origin than 1. Hence, we return a new point bearing the coordinates (-5, 9).arrow_forwardSalary Calculator Create a program that computes the salary based on an employee's hourly wage and hours worked. Note that employees may work for fractions of an hour, e.g. 1 and a half hours (1.5 hours). Use the following formulas: Less than or equal to 40 hours worked hourly wage * hours worked Over 40, but less than or equal to 65 hours worked (hourly wage * 40) + (hours worked - 40) * (hourly wage * 1.5) Over 65 hours worked (hourly wage * 40) + (hourly wage * 1.5) * 25 + (hours worked - 65) * hourly wage * 2 Also make sure that the hourly wage and hours worked are positive. Otherwise, display the error message: "Invalid input". Please see the sample outputs below to guide the design of your program. main.cc file #include <iomanip> #include <iostream> int main() { // TODO: accept user input to store the hourly wage and hours worked. // Then, include the header file at the top of this file so you can // call your function that computes a…arrow_forwardInterest Rates Savings accounts state an interest rate and a compounding period. 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.) Write a program to compare interestrates offered by two different banks and determine the most favorable interest rate. SeeFig. 4.24.arrow_forward
- (Apartment problem) A real estate office handles , say, 50 apartment units. When the rent is, say, $600 per month, all the units are occupied. However, for each, say $40 increase in rent, one unit becomes vacant. Moreover, each occupied unit requires an average of $27 per month for maintenance. How many units should be rented to maximize the profit? Write a program that prompts the user to enter: The total number of units. The rent to occupy all the units. The increase in rent that results in a vacant unit. Amount to maintain rented unit. The program then outputs the number of units to be rented to maximize the profit.arrow_forwardOpen notes and open book. Suppose you have a certain amount of money in a savings account that earnscompound monthly interest, and you want to calculate the amount that you willhave after a specific number of months. The formula is as follows:f = p * (1 + i)^t• f is the future value of the account after the specified time period.• p is the present value of the account.• i is the monthly interest rate.• t is the number of months.Write a program that takes the account's present value, monthly interest rate,and the number of months that the money will be left in the account as threeinputs from the user. The program should pass these values to a function thatreturns the future value of the account after the specified number of months.the program should print the account's future value.arrow_forwardCoin Converter Lab Description Write a program that asks the user to enter an amount of money in the format of dollars and remaining cents.
