Working with Files in C++.

Create the following  program called payroll.cpp.  Note that the file you read must be created before you run this program.  The output file will be created automatically by the program.  You can save the input file in the same directory as your payroll.cpp file by using Add New Item, Text File.  

// File:  Payroll.cpp

// Purpose:  Read data from a file and write out a payroll

// Programmer:  (your name and section)

#include <cstdlib> // for the definition of EXIT_FAILURE

#include <fstream> // required for external file streams

#include <iostream> // required for cin cout

using namespace std;

int main ()

{

ifstream ins; // associates ins as an input stream

 ofstream outs; // associates outs as an output stream

 int id; // id for employee

 double hours, rate; // hours and rate worked

 double pay; // pay calculated

 double total_pay; // grand total of pay

 // Open input and output file, exit on any error

 ins.open ("em_in.txt"); // ins connects to file "em_in.txt"

 if (ins.fail ())

 {

   cout << "*** ERROR: Cannot open input file. " << endl;

   getchar(); //  hold the screen

   return EXIT_FAILURE;

 } // end if

 outs.open ("em_out.txt"); // outs connects to file "em_out.txt"

 if (outs.fail ())

 {

   cout << "*** ERROR: Cannot open output file." << endl;

   getchar();

   return EXIT_FAILURE;

 } // end if

// Set total_pay to 0

total_pay = 0;

ins >> id; // get first id from file

// Do the payroll while the id number is not the sentinel value

while (id != 0)

 {

   ins >> hours >> rate;

   pay = hours * rate;

   total_pay += pay;

   outs << "For  employee " << id << endl;

   outs << "The pay is " << pay << " for " << hours

<< " hours worked at " << rate << " rate of pay" << endl << endl;

   ins >> id;

 } // end while

 // Display a message on the screen

   cout << "Employee processing finished" << endl;

   cout << "Grand total paid out is " << total_pay << endl;

   ins.close(); // close input file stream

   outs.close(); // close output file stream

   return 0;

 }

Create the input file:

Inside C++ go to  File Add New Item and then Text to create a text file.

Walmart, America’s largest retailer had the market’s second largest debt issuance in the U.S. in 2019, selling $16 billion in 30 year bonds. The funds were to help finance the purchase of Flipkart, India’s largest online seller. Thanks to Walmart’s high credit rating, the bonds were classified by Moody’s (one of the top bond rating agencies) as Aa2, or very highly rated. The bond sale was managed by a syndicate of investment banks, including Barclays Plc, Citigroup Inc., JPMorgan Chase & Co., Bank of America Corp., HSBC Holdings Plc and Wells Fargo & Co.

Create a box plot for each of the three variables, with Gulf View and No Gulf View condos represented by a separate box. Compare the distributions between the two groups along with the statistics in question (1). Discuss any specific statistical results that would help a real estate agent understand the condominium market. ( Gulf View condos are denoted by “1” in the Gulf View column, whereas No Gulf View condos are denoted by “0”. Prices are in thousands of dollars.)

25)Sosin Inc. manufactures hydrogen engines. Recently 350 new orders placed by customers requesting credit. The variable cost is $16,000 per unit, and the credit price is $18,400 each. Credit is extended for one period, and based on historical experience, payments for 15% of the orders are never collected. The required return is 3% per period. Suppose that customers who don’t default become repeat customers and they never default. Calculate the NPV?

Target Costing

The president of Houston Electronics was pleased with the company’s newest product, the HE Versatile CVD. The product is portable and can be attached to a computer to play or record computer programs or sound, attached to an amplifier to play or record music, or attached to a television to play or record TV programs. It can even be attached to a camcorder to record videos directly on compact disks rather than on tape. It also can be used with a headset to play or record sound. The proud president announced that this unique and innovative product would be an important factor in reestablishing the North American consumer electronics industry.

Based on development costs and predictions of sales volume, manufacturing costs, and distribution costs, the cost-based price of the HE Versatile CVD was determined to be $425. Following a market-skimming strategy, management set the initial selling price at $525. The marketing plan was to reduce the selling price by $50 during each of the first two years of the product’s life to obtain the highest contribution possible from each market segment.

The initial sales of the HE Versatile CVD were strong, and Houston Electronics found itself

adding second and third production shifts. Although these shifts were expensive, at a selling price of $525, the product had ample contribution margin to remain highly profitable. The president was talking with the company’s major investors about the desirability of obtaining financing for a major plant expansion when the bad news arrived. A foreign company had announced that it would shortly introduce a similar product that would incorporate new design features and sell for only $350. The president was shocked. “Why,” she remarked, “it costs us $375 to put a complete unit in the hands of customers.”

Required

How could the foreign competitor profitably sell a similar product for less than the manufacturing costs to Houston Electronics? What advice do you have for the president concerning the HE Versatile CVD? What advice would you have to help the company avoid similar problems in the future?
