Problem: A company wants a program that will calculate the weekly paycheck for an employee based on how many hours they worked. For this company, an employee earns $20 an hour for the first 40 hours that they work. The employee earns overtime, $30 an hour, for each hour they work
above
40 hours.


Example: If an employee works 60 hours in a week, they would earn $20/hr for the first 40 hours. Then they would earn $30/hr for the 20 hours they worked overtime. Therefore, they earned: ($20/hr * 40hrs) + ($30/hr * 20 hrs) = $800 + $600 = $1400 total.


For this assignment, you must create pseudocode
and
a flowchart to design a program that will calculate an employee’s weekly paycheck.




  • Write pseudocode to design a programming solution by outlining a series of steps and using appropriate indentation and keywords. As you write your pseudocode, be sure to consider the following:

    • What input does the computer need?

    • What steps does the program need to follow to process the input? What output should result?

    • When might you need to use decision branching? If you used decision branching, did you account for all possible input values?

    • Did you use appropriate indentation and keywords (such as IF, ELSE, CALCULATE, and so on) throughout your pseudocode?






  • Create a flowchart to design a programming solution by organizing a series of steps and using appropriate symbols and arrows. As you create your flowchart, be sure to use
    appropriate arrows and symbols
    for each of the following:

    • Start and end points

    • Input and output

    • Decision branching

    • Processing steps


    Note: You may find the correct shapes to create your flowchart on the Insert menu in Microsoft Word. Or you may draw your flowchart by hand, take a clear picture, and insert the picture into your Word document. Use the
    add shapes
    or
    insert pictures
    tutorials to help you. You could also use a flowcharting tool that you are familiar with, such as Lucidchart, if you prefer.
