Question ID: 125300

Write a java graphical user interface program that will determine and display when an employee of a company gets a rise, how much he gets, and how often he gets a rise. The two facts that will determine if a user gets a rise and how much are: 1. How long he or she has been with the company 2. How old he or she is. The rise will be calculated based on user’s annual salary (gross). If the user is more than one year with the company and is under 20 years old, he gets a 5 % rise and 3 % every two years there after. If the user is more than one year with the company and is under 30 years old, he gets a 7 % rise and 4 % every two years there after. If the user is more than one year with the company and is under 40 years old, he gets a 9 % rise and 5 % every two years there after. If the user is more than one year with the company and is under 50 years old, he gets a 11 % rise and 6 % every two years there after. If the user is more than one year with the company and is under 65 years old, he gets a 13 % rise and 7 % every two years there after. User must retire at age 65 years.
Request for Question Clarification by seizer-ga on 16 Dec 2002 05:13 PST Hi there math01. You've posted an interesting question! But I feel that to answer it well will require more time and effort than the average amount of time and effort associated with the price you've suggested. Java GUI programming takes more time than basic console programming, and I imagine that many researchers would feel that the price does not match the task. Should you decide to raise your price, you might also post a clarification here, so that the system will notify me to take another look at your question. You may also choose to wait, in the hope that another researcher may choose to answer your question. You might find this link to pricing guidelines helpful: https://answers.google.com/answers/pricing.html Regards, --seizer-ga

Clarification of Question by math01-ga on 16 Dec 2002 09:49 PST Hi answerguru-ga, I will add another $10.00 making the total $20.00 for this question. This will also be my last offer. Regards

Answered By: seizer-ga on 16 Dec 2002 14:47 PST

Hello there math01. I've completed your code, and it seems to perform the task well. There are two files: http://xult.org/math01/GUI.java http://xult.org/math01/Calc.java Simply compile them both, and run the GUI class. A window should pop up, and you will then be able to perform these calculations. You must supply FOUR things to the program: * The salary the user started on. * The user's age * The year they started * The current year With that information, the program will calculate what their current salary is. I added a File menu so you can exit the program easily. I hope this helps! Thanks for an interesting question. --seizer-ga
Request for Answer Clarification by math01-ga on 17 Dec 2002 01:44 PST Hi seizer-ga, Tried running program but keep getting the error message: Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoSuchmethod Error: Main Can you please advise.
Clarification of Answer by seizer-ga on 17 Dec 2002 03:01 PST Hi there math01. This error is probably because you're running the Calc class. You need to run the GUI class. If you're at the command line, type these two commands: 1) javac *.java 2) java GUI This should run the program correctly. Also, make sure you haven't altered any of the source code, and have downloaded it correctly. To do this, click your right mouse button on each of the links, and choose "Save Target As" or "Save Link Target As". Hope this helps, --seizer-ga
Request for Answer Clarification by math01-ga on 17 Dec 2002 04:06 PST Still can not get the program to run. When I type in the salary, the start year, the current year, and age, nothing happens. Can I send you an attachment so you can see what I am talking about? Let me know how I can send it to you. Regards
Clarification of Answer by seizer-ga on 17 Dec 2002 04:13 PST Hello there math01 I'm sorry that you seem to be having a problem. Firstly, could you take a look at this screenshot: http://xult.org/math01/shot1.gif Please tell me if anything appears differently when you run the program. Secondly, could you tell me which version of Java you're using? Thanks, --seizer-ga
Request for Answer Clarification by math01-ga on 17 Dec 2002 04:23 PST Will check on that maybe I am doing someting wrong. However, what I am also seeing is that when the user reaches 65, he gets the same salary as when he started with the company and does not specify he goes into retirement with his current salary. Advise
Clarification of Answer by seizer-ga on 17 Dec 2002 04:35 PST I'd be happy to change the retired option. I'm a little unclear on what you would like the salary output to be, if the user is over 65? Should I make it 0, to indicate that the user is no longer getting paid a salary, because they have retired? Thanks, --seizer-ga
Request for Answer Clarification by math01-ga on 17 Dec 2002 05:10 PST User should retire with 50 percent (%) less of current salary.
Clarification of Answer by seizer-ga on 17 Dec 2002 05:23 PST The change has been made. You must re-download Calc.java (GUI.java remains unchanged). A retired user's salary is now 50% of what they would be earning if they were still working at the company. Regards, --seizer-ga
Request for Answer Clarification by math01-ga on 17 Dec 2002 05:51 PST Downloaded Calc.java; ran the program and still get the salary at age 65 to be the starting salary.
Clarification of Answer by seizer-ga on 17 Dec 2002 06:10 PST Hello there. It sounds like you haven't yet recompiled the new code. You'll need to recompile Calc.java, or else it will continue to use the old code. My sample values: Starting salary: 10000 Current age: 65 Start year: 2000 Current year: 2002 Clicking "Calculate" then shows a current salary of 5650. Hope this helps! --seizer-ga
Request for Answer Clarification by math01-ga on 17 Dec 2002 23:51 PST Hi seizer-ga, Well done. Everything is running just fine. One thing I will like to know though, how long will my questions and answers on my account be available to me?
Clarification of Answer by seizer-ga on 18 Dec 2002 03:25 PST Superb! I'm glad to hear it's up and running. Google Answers does not delete any questions. The earliest question, question number 2, is still available in the database (yours is number 125300). https://answers.google.com/answers/main?cmd=threadview&id=2 As to the Java files, they are located on my personal web server. I have no plans to remove them at the moment, but they will not be there indefinitely, so I would advise you to make a safe backup copy on your own machine. Regards, --seizer-ga
Request for Answer Clarification by math01-ga on 18 Dec 2002 04:00 PST What do these operators mean in the program: += Y++ /=
Clarification of Answer by seizer-ga on 18 Dec 2002 04:19 PST A statement such as x+=2 means x is now equal to x plus 2 A statement such as y++ means that y is now equal to y plus 1 A statemtnt such as x/=2 means that x is now equal to x divided by 2 --seizer-ga
