Stock Transaction
Last month Joe purchased some stock in Acme Software, Inc. Here are the details of the purchase:
- The number of shares that Joe purchased was 1,000.
- When Joe purchased the stock, the paid $32.87 per share.
- Joe paid his stockbroker a commission that amounted to 2% of the amount he paid for the stock.
Two weeks later Joe sold the stock. Here are the details of the sale:
- The number of shares that Joe sold was 1,000.
- He sold the stock for $33.92 per share.
- He paid his stockbroker another commission that amounted to 2% of the amount he received for the stock.
Write a program that displays the following information:
- The amount of money Joe paid for the stock.
- The amount of commission Joe paid his broker when he bought the stock.
- The amount that Joe sold the stock for.
- The amount of commission Joe paid his broker when he sold the stock.
- Display the amount of profit that Joe made after selling his stock and paying the two commissions to his broker. (If the amount of profit that your program displays is a negative number, then Joe lost money on the transaction.)

By writing a pseudo code and flow charts, design a program that displays the following information:● The amount of money Joe paid for the stock.
Payment
=
Principal [rate ((1 + rate)months)]
[(rate + 1)months - 1]
For the formula to compute monthly payment, see Listing 2.9, ComputeLoan.java.
(Financial application: loan amortization schedule) The monthly payment for a
given loan pays the principal and the interest. The monthly interest is computed
by multiplying the monthly interest rate and the balance (the remaining princi-
pal). The principal paid for the month is therefore the monthly payment minus
the monthly interest. Write a program that lets the user enter the loan amount
