Question

***Please answer the question using the JAVA programming language.

Write a program that calculates mileage reimbursement for a salesperson at a rate of $0.35 per mile. Your program should interact (ask the user to enter the data) with the user in this manner:

MILEAGE REIMBURSEMENT CALCULATOR

Enter beginning odometer reading > 13505.2

Enter ending odometer reading > 13810.6

You traveled 305.4 miles. At $0.35 per mile, your reimbursement is $106.89.

** Extra credit 6 points: Format the answer (2 points), use JavaDoc (2 points), use constant for the rate per mile (2 points).

Answer 1

import java.util.Scanner;

public class Main {

// Constant to represent the rate per mile

private static final double RATE_PER_MILE = 0.35;

public static void main(String[] args) {

Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);

System.out.println("MILEAGE REIMBURSEMENT CALCULATOR");

// take the readings

System.out.print("Enter beginning odometer reading > ");

double startReading = sc.nextDouble();

System.out.print("Enter ending odometer reading > ");

double endReading = sc.nextDouble();

// calculate the number of miles travelled

double miles = endReading - startReading;

// calculate the total reimbursement

double reimbursement = miles * RATE_PER_MILE;

// print the results

System.out.printf("You traveled %.2f miles. At $%.2f per mile, your reimbursement is $%.2f.", miles, RATE_PER_MILE, reimbursement);

}
