Figure 4-1. Flowchart of Sales Commission Program
When you execute the program, you will
be
prompted for the total sales. The
commission then will be computed according to the above scheme and printed.
Line
ut
allows you to enter the total sales, which is stored in the variable ST.
Line 28 computes the flat rate sales commission and stores it in the variable
eM.
Line
38
contains a new statement, the
IFITHEN
statement. As can
be
seen from the
flow chart in figure 4-1, the program must'branchafter line 20.
If the sales exceed $2000, an additional computation must be performed. However, if
this is not the case, then the sales commission is already calculated in line 20 and no
additional computation is required.
