Does this assumption limit the results? ( each time the level of debt changes. Will this occur and does this limit the applicability of your results?
2. The base level of interest rates, the risk free rate, changes over time. Is this important in calculating the optimal level. Since the estimate is based on the current environment does it matter if this changes?

Write a program that can be used to calculate the commission earned in a real estate transaction. The chart below describes the formulas used to calculate the commission. Your program will ask the user for the sales price as an double, calculate the commission, and display the sales price and commission. Remember to use constants rather than “magic numbers”.

Sales Price Commission Less than $100,000 5% of the sales price $100,000 to $300,000 $5,000 + 10% of the amount of the sales price over $100,000 More than $300,000 $25,000 + 15% of the amount of the sales price over $300,000

If the user asked to do division and the second number is zero, you will report the error and not perform any action. Otherwise, you will display what the equation is and the result
