Task 1-   Write a program that computes a single filer’s income tax burden.

TAX RATE

Single Filers Income

10%

Up to $6000

15%

$6,001 - $27,950

27%

$27,951 - $67,700

30%

$67,701 - $141,250

35%

$141,251 - $307,050

38.6%

$307, 051 or more

Object Orientated Design of Previous Problem

Create a set() method that will allow the user to input her income using new Scanner (System.in), input method and then a get() that will return the amount of tax owed.

All source code for solving the problem and handling user input should be created in a “programmer created class.”

Use return for retrieving all values from calculations and if/else statements etc.

main will be used to operate the program.

Output should have proper formatting for dollars, 2 decimal places.

Sample Output- //Output should have proper formatting for dollars, 2 decimal places

Income tax for a single person making $85000.00 is $25500.00

Income tax for a single person making $9800.00 is $1470.00

Explanation / Answer

TaxCalc.java

import java.text.DecimalFormat;
import java.util.Scanner;

public class TaxCalc {

   private static double income;
   public static void main(String[] args) {
       set();
       DecimalFormat df = new DecimalFormat("0.00");
       System.out.println("Income tax for a single person making $"+df.format(income)+" is $"+df.format(get()));
   }
   public static void set(){
       Scanner scan = new Scanner (System.in);
       System.out.println("Enter your income: ");
       income = scan.nextDouble();
   }
   public static double get(){
      
       double percentage = getTaxPercentage();
       double tax = (percentage * income)/100;
       return tax;
   }
   public static double getTaxPercentage(){
       if(income <= 6000){
           return 10;
       }
       else if(income > 6000 && income <=27950){
           return 15;
       }
       else if(income > 27950 && income <=67700){
           return 27;
       }
       else if(income > 67700 && income <=141250){
           return 30;
       }
       else if(income > 141250 && income <=307050){
           return 35;
       }
       else {
           return 38.6;
       }
   }

}

Output:

Enter your income:
85000
Income tax for a single person making $85000.00 is $25500.00

Enter your income:
9800.00
Income tax for a single person making $9800.00 is $1470.00
