Question

Write a program named as calcPrice.c that formats product information entered by the user and calculate the total amount of purchase.

Answer 1

Answer:

Here is the calcPrice.c program:

#include <stdio.h>   //to use input output functions

int main(void)  {  //start of main method

   int itemNo, month, day, year, quantity;  //declares variables to hold item number, quantity, and date

   float unitPrice; //declare variable to hold price per unit

   printf("Enter item number: ");  // prompts user to enter item number

   scanf("%d", &itemNo);  //reads item number from user and stores it in itemNo variable

   printf("Enter unit price: ");  // prompts user to enter unit price

   scanf("%f", &unitPrice);  //reads input unit price and stores it in unitPrice variable

   

    printf("Enter quantity: ");  //prompts user to enter quantity

   scanf("%d", &quantity);  //reads input quantity and stores it in quantity variable

   printf("Enter purchase date (mm/dd/yyyy): ");  //prompts user to enter purchase date

   scanf("%d/%d/%d", &month, &day, &year);  //reads input date and stores it in month, day and year variables

    float totalAmount = unitPrice * quantity;  //computes the total amount

   printf("\nItem\tUnit Price\tQTY\tPurchase Date\tTotal Amount\n");  //displays the item, unit price, qty, purchase data and total amount with tab space between each

   printf("%d\t$%5.2f\t%d\t%.2d/%.2d/%d\t$%5.2f\n", itemNo, unitPrice,quantity, month, day, year,totalAmount);   }    //displays the values of itemNo, unitPrice, quantity, month, day, year and computed totalAmount with tab space between each

Explanation:

Lets suppose user enters 583 as item number, 13.5 as unit price, 2 as quantity and 09/15/2016 as date so

itemNo = 583

unitPrice = 13.5

quantity = 2

month = 09

day = 15

year = 2016

totalAmount is computed as:

  totalAmount = unitPrice * quantity;

 totalAmount = 13.5* 2

totalAmount = 27.00

Hence the output of the entire program is:

Item    Unit Price      QTY     Purchase Date   Total Amount      

583     $  13.50           2           09/15/2016         $  27.00  

The screenshot of the program along with its output is attached.
