The program is to be called CarClub

The application will display menu as below

1. load cars

2. display all cars

3. search car

4 count cars older the 30 years

5 exit

Please enter your option:

Load car menu should read input data from text file name (car.txt)

Car class have 4 data members which are. Car make, car model, car year and car price

In addition

If both car year and price were not provided, year has a default value as 2020 and price has a default value as $20000

If only price was not provided, price should be set to a default value based on this table

2015<year<=2020 and price has a default value as $20000

2010<year<=2015 and price has a default value as $14000

1980<year<=2010 and price has a default value as $7000

2015<year<=2020 and price has a default value as $20000

year<=1980 and price has a default value as $40000

Using dynamic memory allocation to store Car Object

You should implement at least 1 custom excepetion and 1 file exception

You have to implement 1 operator overloading for operator "<<" to use as a print

Provide an informed opinion about Shake Shack’s future quarterly earnings in an appealing and convincing format. Concretely, you should:

  • Gather information relevant for providing an informed opinion about Shake Shack’s EPS for the first quarter of 2020 (January-March).
  • Filter and weigh the information according to relevance. Some information is more relevant than others. New information is more up-to-date than old information; information from reputable sources tends to be more reliable than information from laymen; information that contradicts what a majority of others believe may be flawed, etc.
  • Provide a clear estimate of Shake Shack’s expected Q1 2020 EPS.
  • Write 2 paragraphs in which you present your findings and your opinion (no PowerPoint or visual aids required).
  • Motivate your opinions. Why do you think analysts’ estimates may be too high (Coronavirus?) or too low (overreaction to Coronavirus?)? Are some analysts’ forecasts made before the outbreak hit and restaurants closed?

. Computer programmers work under much more pleasant conditions than garbage collectors. Yet, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the median salary of a sanitation worker is about $35,270 and the median salary of a computer programmer is about $79,840. True or false: This shows that the theory of compensating wage differentials is wrong. Explain.
