Purpose of this assignment To provide learners with an understanding of the principles of programming in Java, exploring the object oriented nature of the language and the multi-platform versatility offered. Company : Robert is running a small company supplying Wood Flooring to offices and houses. He has hired two assistants to do the work. Each assistant can install wood flooring at an average rate of3 m2 every hour. Each assistant is paid £ 10.25 / hour. Robert charges an additional £85.00 / week for his administrative work. Design a program to calculate the overall job cost, assuming that there will be only one type of wood used in all the rooms with a price of £19.95/ m2 . The user should provide dimensions of the room and you are required to calculate following:1.Area of the room2. Time necessary to install the wood floor3. Final cost of the job.Assume Robert will always use both of his assistants for every job.Robert accepts cash payment if the final cost of the job is less than or equal to £300. If the final cost is above £300, payment by debit or credit card is accepted.Your program should prompt the user with “Payment Options”, if the final cost is over £300.If “Debit Card” is selected as the payment option, there is a charge of £0.50 per transaction.If “Credit Card” is selected as payment option, there is a charge of 2% of the final cost. If the client chooses to pay in Cash, there will not be any additional charge.London School of Science & Technology . Read more about : Physiological Principles for Health and Social Care

Create a table with the:

–Variable name,

–Description if it is constant/variable and its usage/role

–Datatype information

–Produce a statement in JAVA to declare and initialize them if necessary (Write the command lines in your word document template).

–Produce a graphical representation of how the user interface could look

Produce a step-by-step pseudo code to describe the processing of the data.

Draw a flow chart for the pseudo code produced.

Task 3 (LO3: 3.1,3.2,3.3, M3, D1) Interim Deadline (3rd November 2014) (Formative Assessment in Week 7)

Write a Program in Java for the given scenario.

Create separate functions to calculate Area, Time Required and Total Cost.

Alter your program so that the user can enter the number of rooms requiring flooring.

Create an Array to calculate and store (Area, Time required and Total Cost) for each room.

Calculate the Final Cost by adding the total cost of all rooms.

Calculate the total cost to pay if Credit/Debit card charges are applicable,
