Problem Statement for Stock Transaction Program
George uses the services of a brokerage firm to buy and sell stocks. Each time he buys or sells a block of stocks, he must pay the brokerage firm a commission of 1.5% per share.Design a program that allows George to enter the number of shares in the block, the price per share when he bought the block and the price per share when he sold the block. The program should display the amount of money he paid to buy the stock and the amount of the commission. The amount of money he made when he sold the stock and the amount of the commission, the amount of profit (or loss) he madeafter paying for the purchase cost and both commissions.
There are three user inputs for this problem: the number of shares in the block, the price per share when the block was bought, the price per share when the block was sold.
There is one constant: the percentage of the commission (1.5%)
The amount to buy the stock is: number of shares in block * purchase price per…

- Traffic light control sequence flowchart A typical traffic light control sequence for a 4 road junction has been described below (for a road system where the vehicles keep to their left while driving i.e. Australia, UK, South Africa etc). The light changes as per the sequence listed below: A. Before switch ON, all 4 roads should get ‘flashing yellow’ so as to enable them to look around and cross the road junction. B. When switched ON, Main roads 1 & 3 should get green signals G1/G3 to go straight. This signal remains on for 30 seconds. C. The above signals should be changed over to go right GR1/GR3 for 15 seconds only if any sensor S1/S3 of vehicles waiting to turn right is detected in the right turn lane . This will take place after a brief yellow signals Y1/Y3 in between. D.

- flowchart and pseudocode in problem solving and logic A painting company has determined that for every 150 square feet of wall space, one gallon of paint and nine hours of labor will be required. The company charges $25.00 per hour for labor. If the size of the wall is more than 1500 square feet company will charge only $ 23.00 per hour of labor. Design a modular program that asks the user to enter the square feet of wall space to be painted and the price of the paint per gallon. Pass those parameters to the Module and perform all the calculations inside that module. Avoid using ref variables.

The company has tasked you with creating a program that will allow tailors to enter information about the kind of material used to make the customer's custom suit and the number of square yards used to make the suit and will determine the total cost to charge the customer. Use the following steps to create the program: 1. The program should display a menu that asks the technician to select the type of material that was used. Make sure the menu is formatted exactly as in the Sample Input and Output of the instructions (including indentation). I 2. The program should determine the cost per square yard of the material. The cost per square yard is determined based on the type of material that is used.

- C language The program should allow users to add, subtract, multiply, and divide fractions. The program should display a menu and prompt the user for a mathematical operation, until they enter 5 to exit. The menu should give the user the option to add, subtract, multiply or divide fractions, or exit. After the user chooses their option, they should be prompted to input two fractions. The result of the arithmetic should then be displayed to the screen. Requirements main()Functionality: This main function should prompt the user for a menu option until they enter 5. If the user doesn't choose Option 5 to end the program, it should get two fractions from the user. It should decide, based on the menu option which actions to perform on the fractions. Option 1 adds the two fractions together. Option 2 subtracts the first fraction from the second. Option 3 multiplies the two fractions together. Option 4 divides the first fraction by the second one. In addition to the main functions, your…arrow_forwardFlowchart You need to develop a solution for a drone surveillance system. The system must implement the following rules: The system uses three drones but only one drone will fly at any given time. When the drones are at rest (in their 'home' location) they sit on a recharging station and can fully charge a battery in 30 minutes (the charger will automatically turn off when the battery is fully charged). A drone's battery life lasts up to 40 minutes of flight time. The surveillance system operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The flight path is preprogrammed using a set of GPS coordinates and does not need to be programmed in your solution. A drone will follow the flight path continuously (circling) until the battery has just enough power remaining to return to the 'home' location to recharge. When a drone returns to the 'home' location, it seats itself in the charger, and another drone (one that has the most charge) will automatically launch and repeat the cycle. During the…arrow_forwardFat Gram Calculator Design a program that asks for the number of fat grams and calories in a food item. Validate the input as follows: Make sure the number of fat grams and calories is not less than 0. According to nutritional formulas, the number of calories cannot exceed fat grams x 9. Make sure that the number of calories entered is not greater than fat grams x 9. Once corrected data has been entered, the program should calculate and display the percentage of calories that come from fat. Use the following formula: Percentage of calories from fat = (Fat grams x 9) / calories ANSWER IN PSEUDOCODEarrow_forward
