3.2 Activity 2

3.2.1 Objective

Write a Java program based on the flowchart.

3.2.2 Problem Description

Suppose your cell phone calling plan allows you to use 700 minutes per month. If you use more that this limit
in a month, you are charged an overage fee of RM0.35 for each excess minute. Your phone shows you the
number of excess minutes that you have used in the current month, but it does not show you how much your
overage fee currently is. You would like to have a program that be able to enter the number of excess
minutes, and have the program perform the calculation for you. The program should be able to receive input
and display output as shown in the figure below.

*****************************************************
MY CELL PHONE OVERAGE FEE
*****************************************************
ENTER THE NUMBER OF EXCESS MINUTES: 20
OVERAGE FEE = RM 7.0

i. Modify the pseudocode/flowchart as designed in Lab Module 2 (Activity 3) according to the above
problem.
ii. Write a Java program that should be able to obtain input using Scanner class and display the output as
shown in the figure above.

3.3.2 Problem Description

Write an application that takes Celsius temperature as input and converts it to its Fahrenheit equivalent. The
formula is:

Fahrenheit = (9/5) x Celcius + 32

i. Identify the input-process-output for the above problem.

3.4 Activity 4

3.4.1 Objective

Writing flowchart, pseudocode and Java program.

3.4.2 Problem Description

Suppose you want to deposit a certain amount of money into a savings account, and then leave it alone to
draw interest for the next 10 years. At the end of 10 years, you would like to have RM10,000 in the account.
How much do you need to deposit today to make that happen? You can use the following formula to find
out:
𝐹
𝑃=
(1 + 𝑟)!

where
P is the present amount that you need to deposit today
F is the future value that you want in the account
r is the annual interest rate
n is the number of years that you plan to let the money sit in the account

i. Modify the pseudocode/flowchart as designed in Lab Module 2 (Activity 4) in order to perform the
calculations that can experiment with different values for the terms as depicted in the figure below.

*****************************************************
MY SAVING FORECAST PROGRAM
*****************************************************
WHAT IS THE VALUE YOU WANT TO HAVE IN YOUR ACCOUNT? RM 10000
HOW MANY YEARS YOU WANT THE MONEY TO SIT IN YOUR ACCOUNT? 10
WHAT IS THE ANNUAL INTEREST RATE (IN %)? 3.41

THE AMOUNT YOU NEED TO DEPOSIT TODAY IS RM 7151.129104174272

ii. Write a Java program that should be able to obtain input using Scanner class and display the output as
shown in the figure above.

3.5.2 Problem Description

Body Mass Index (BMI) is a measure of health on weight. It can be calculated by taking your weight in
kilograms and dividing by the square of your height in meters.

i. Identify the input-process-output for the above problem.

ii. Design the algorithm in pseudocode and flowchart for the above problem.
iii. Write a program that prompts the user to enter a weight and height and display the BMI result using
JOptionPane class.

3.6 Activity 6

3.6.1 Objective

Writing flowchart, pseudocode and Java program.

3.6.2 Problem Description

The total price of a product is the price of the product plus the sales tax. Suppose the sales tax is 6%. Write
a program that reads the price of the product and displays the total cost of the product.

i. Identify the input-process-output for the above problem.

ii. Design the algorithm in pseudocode and flowchart for the above problem.
