Question 36 (20 pts)
(TCOs 1—6) TicketsRUs needs an application to calculate ticket prices. There are three ticket prices:

• Orchestra $85 each
• Mezzanine $70 each
• Balcony $45 each

There is also a 15% discount on matinee performances.

Your application has the GUI shown below.

With the following named components:

Component	Type	Purpose
txtNum	JTextField	Input for number of tickets
chkMatinee	JCheckBox	Check if matinee performance
radOrchestra	JRadioButton	Check for orchestra tickets
radMezzanine	JRadioButton	Check for mezzanine tickets
radBalcony	JRadioButton	Check for balcony tickets
btnCalc	JButton	Click to calculate price
txtEach	JTextField	Displays price of each ticket
txtTotal	JTextField	Displays total price

Clicking the CalcPrice button should determine the price per ticket and the total price based on the user’s input and display in txtEach and txtTotal. You should make sure the number of tickets is entered and a ticket type is selected, otherwise give an error message. 

The action listener for btnCalc is set up as follows.

1 2 3 4 5

btnCalc.addActionListener(newActionListener() {         publicvoid actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {                  calcPrice();  //write the code for this method         }});

Write the calcPrice method that is called by the action listener. This class method has access to all of the GUI components. You DO NOT HAVE TO CODE THE GUI. ONLY write the code for this method which does all the work. The header for the method is:

1	privatevoid calcPrice()

Question 37 (20 pts)
(TCOs 1–6) Employees at a certain company get a yearly bonus based on years of service. The bonus is a percentage of their annual salary based on the table below.

5 – 14	7%
15++	12%

Create a class called Employee that can be used for this.
It should have attributes of

• Name;
• Years; and
• Salary.

Create the following methods.

• Default constructor to initialize all attributes
• Get/Set for name, years, salary
• Get to calculate and return bonus rate

This class will be used with the Bonus Calculator GUI shown below.

With the following named components:

Component	Type	Purpose
txtName	JTextField	Input for name
txtYears	JTextField	Input for years
txtSalary	JTextField	Input for salary
btnCalc	JButton	Click to calculate bonus
txtBonusPercent	JTextField	Displays bonus percentage
txtBonusAmount	JTextField	Displays bonus amount

You DO NOT have to code the GUI.
The action listener for btnCalc is set up as follows. 

1 2 3 4 5

btnCalc.addActionListener(newActionListener() {         publicvoid actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {                  calcBonus();  //write the code for this method         }});

Question 38 (15 pts)
(TCOs 1–6) A trucking company has an application to track data from their trucks regarding miles driven and fuel used each month. This information is stored in a file named “trucks.txt” . This table has the following fields.

TruckID	Truck Number (String)
Miles	Miles Driven (double)
Fuel	Fuel Used (double)

Format of file – note the # delimiter character between fields
TruckID#miles#fuel 

The application has a button that is clicked to read each line of the file and calculates and displays in the console the total miles driven, total fuel used, and average miles per gallon. You DO NOT have to write a separate class to process the data. The output in the console should look like:
Total miles driven by all trucks xxx
Total gallons of fuel used yyy
Average miles per gallon for the fleet zz.zz

The class method readFile() is called by the action listener to do the work. Write the code for this method.

Question 39 (15 pts)
