Question

A company wants a program that will calculate the basic pay information for all of their employees. The following requirements are necessary to make the program work as it needs to:

This program must allow the user to input whether he or she is hourly or salaried.

If salaried, the employee should be prompted to enter a weekly salary.

If hourly, the employee should be prompted to enter an hourly wage and the number of hours worked, so that the program can calculate their weekly pay, including overtime if it is appropriate.

The following taxes must be deducted from gross pay regardless of salary or hourly choice:

State tax of 6%

Federal tax of 15%

Social Security tax of 6.2%

Medicare tax of 1.45%

Output the following in an easily readable format:

Salary or Hourly choice

Either Salary or Hours Worked and Hourly Wage

Total Gross Pay

Each Tax Amount

Net Pay

Your project manager wants a flowchart of your process and detailed comments of your code so that your program is easy to understand for other programmers
