Question

The SuperFast Car Rental company wishes to rewrite their order processing program and needs a flowchart and pseudocode for their new algorithm. The rules used to process the orders are listed below:

Three car types are available for rent: Compact, Economy and Intermediate. Their prices per day are as follows:

o Compact: $50 per day

o Economy: $60 per day

o Intermediate: $70 per day

Loss Damage Waiver is also offered at $25 per day. This is optional.

Roadside Issues Coverage is also provided at $9 per day. This is also optional.

The Sales Tax to be added is 7% of the total rental price including the optional items, if any.

Inputs:

*Number of rental days

*Type of Car: Compact, Economy or Intermediate.

*Loss Damage Waiver: Yes or No.

*Roadside Issues Coverage: Yes or No.

Outputs:

*Total rental price (excluding optional items).

*Total for the optional items

*Sales Tax amount to be added to the bill

*Total amount of the bill (including the tax)

Sample 2:

INPUT:

Days: 3

Car type = Economy

Loss Damage Waiver = No

Roadside Issues Coverage = Yes

OUTPUT:

Total Rental Price = $180.00

Total Optional Items = $27.00

Tax Amount = $14.49
