Analyze the current system and identify specific internal control problems.

The cash receipts system starts when the wholesalers send back the remittance advice with their payment. This allows Craig Nelson, the mail room clerk, to collect the payment from the customer and process the cash receipt. Nelson then records the cash receipts in the cash receipts journal. Nelson prepares the deposit slips for the funds to be deposited into the bank along with the checks. The remittance advice is sent to the general ledger department to update the accounts receivable records and is then filed in the billing department. Finally, Nelson prepares the cash receipt journal, out of which comes a journal voucher that is sent to the general ledger department.

Luis Gonzalez, the general ledger clerk, prepares the account summary and journal voucher, which is used to update the general ledger. The account summary and journal voucher is put into the files for record. Gonzalez uses the remittance advice copy sent from the mail room, the deposit slip copy from the bank, and the journal voucher from the account summary to reconcile the deposit slips. He then reconciles the deposit slips from the bank with the totals from the accounts receivable and mail room.

In this progress report, you will be focusing on allowing one of the four transactions listed below to be completed by the user on one of his accounts: checking or savings. You will include defensive programming and error checking to ensure your program functions like an ATM machine would. The account details for your customer are as follows:

For this progress report, update the Progress Report 2 Raptor program that allows the account owner to complete one of the 5 functions of the ATM:

1 – Deposit (adding money to the account)

2 – Withdrawal (removing money from the account)

3 – Balance Inquiry (check current balance)

4 – Transfer Balance (transfer balance from one account to another)

5 – Log Out (exits/ends the program)

After a transaction is completed, the program will update the running balance and give the customer a detailed description of the transaction. A customer cannot overdraft on their account; if they try to withdraw more money than there is, a warning will be given to the customer. Also note that the ATM doesn’t distribute or collect coins – all monetary values are in whole dollars (e.g. an integer is an acceptable variable type). Any incorrect transaction types will display an appropriate message and count as a transaction.

By considering a relationship with (0, N) - (0, N) cardinalities between two entities, discuss the following:

1. The rule used to create relational database tables from a conceptual model.
2. How should the relationship be implemented?
3. Why does it need to be implemented that way?
4. Does the rule differ if either or both minimum cardinalities are changed to 1?

Problem Statement

Introduction

Imagine you are helping the Security Exchange Commission (SEC) respond to anonymous tips. One of the biggest problems the team faces is handling the transcription of the companies reported by the callers. You've noticed that sometimes the company name is misheard by the person taking the call, sometimes it is simply mistyped, and sometimes both. These problems make it more difficult to search the SEC records to identify the company.

You have access to the list of transcribed company names and the database of SEC records. We need a way to effectively translate company names based on their transcriptions so we can narrow our search results to the one company we are interested in.

Input

You will receive a string array representing the list of transcribed company names.

Each string in the array takes the following form:

• The string will contain a company name comprising a set of words separated by spaces.
• You can assume company names will only use alphabetic characters -- no numbers, no punctuation.

You will also receive a string array representing the database of SEC records.

• Each string will be of the form ; (company name string and company EIN string separated by a semicolon). An EIN is a federal tax identification number used to uniquely identify each company.
• As above, the company name half of the string will contain a set of words separated by spaces.
• The EIN half of the string comprises 2 integers, a dash, and 7 more integers, in that order. Example, "12-3456789".
• There will be no semicolons anywhere in the company name or EIN strings.

You may also make the following assumptions about the structure:

• There will be at most 1000 companies in the SEC database.
• There will be at most 50 company names in the input.
• No company names or EINs will be repeated in either the input or the database.

Output

For each transcribed company name in the input string array, you want to match that to a company name (first part of a string) in the SEC database. The second part of the string in the SEC database will represent the company's EIN. Your output should also be a string array, this time representing the EINs mapped to the names in the input string array. You may assume that every input name will match a name in the SEC records.

Responding to Calls

The Basics

Let's start with the first step: making sure that if the name is transcribed perfectly, we match that company's record in the database right away. This will give you an idea of how to match company names in our system and what the output array should be. This will also show you how the input is structured if you desire to make your own custom inputs. The input comes in the form of two string arrays, where the first line represents the length of the array. An example is below.

Output

["54-1264938", "58-1481332", "19-3563561"]

Your code should pass test cases 0, 1, and 2 after solving this step.

Misspellings

The second thing we want to look for are basic misspellings due to the transcriber hearing the company name correctly but missing a keystroke or pressing the wrong key instead. Think "Harveys Steakhouse" turns into "Harfeys Sreakhouse" or "Sugar and Sugar" turns into "Sugra and Sugar". In the first example, the transcriber missed the "v" key and hit "f" instead, and missed "t" and hit "r" instead. In the second, the transcriber accidentally typed "r" before "a". You should pass test cases 3 through 8 after solving this problem. Hint: looking up the phrase "string edit distance" in a search engine should be of some help to you here.

Metaphones

The last and trickiest instance of transcription comes in the form of arbitrary misspellings resulting from the transcriber either hearing the name correctly and using a different spelling than the one in our database, or mishearing the name in some form. Think "Ashley Antiques" vs. "Ashlee Antiques" vs. "Ashleigh Antiques" or "Rate My Reading" turns into "Great My Treating". This is a purposefully very open-ended and tricky problem, and you are not expected to get all cases. One example is viewable and most are purposefully hidden - try to be creative with your solution, as there are multiple ways you could solve this piece! Test cases 9 through 16 are the ones that relate to this part of the problem; as before, an example is below.

2. A strong union is started and it manages to raise the wage of workers in this office to $40,000. Given this wage, will choice A, B or C be preferred. Briefly explain.
3. Based on your answer to the first two parts of the question, how has the union affected the number of jobs available?
4. Based on your answer to the first two parts of this question, is there a reason to believe that a union worker will be able to handle more citizens than a nonunion worker was able to handle before the creation of the strong union?
