Complete Programming Exercise At The End Of Chapter With The Following
This assignment requires developing a Python program that calculates the total purchase amount, applicable discounts based on quantity, and the final amount after discounts. The program must adhere to specified naming and documentation standards, and produce specific outputs related to purchase totals and discounts.
Introduction
The primary goal is to create a Python script capable of determining the total cost of an order before discounts, calculating the discount amount based on the purchase quantity, computing the final amount after the discount, and displaying these values accordingly. This exercise reinforces fundamental programming concepts including input handling, conditional logic, and output formatting.
Problem Description
The program must solicit input from the user regarding the quantity of items purchased and the unit price. It should then compute the total amount before discount. Based on the quantity purchased, it will determine the applicable discount percentage according to predefined discount tiers. The discount dollar amount is calculated by multiplying the total before discount by the discount percentage. The program then calculates the total after discount and displays all relevant values clearly.
Implementation Details
The source code file should be named in the format LastName_Chap3_PE12.py, replacing "LastName" with the student's actual last name. The program should include comments that document its functionality. It should also print the source code and the program output when run.
Specific Requirements
- The program calculates and displays:
- Amount before the discount
- Discount dollar amount based on quantity ordered including the discount percentage
- Amount after the applicable discount
- The entire program and its output should be printed, stapled, and submitted to the instructor at the specified deadline.
- The deadline for submission is at the beginning of class on 4/10/2019, at 6:00 AM.
- If the program cannot be completed by the deadline, the student is instructed not to request extensions.
Solution Approach
The program will prompt the user for the quantity ordered and the unit price of the item. Using conditional statements, it will determine the appropriate discount percentage based on quantity thresholds. The program will then perform calculations for total price before discount, discount amount, and final total after discount. It will format the output for clarity and include comments for documentation purposes.
Example Output
If the user inputs a quantity of 60 items at a unit price of $10.00, the output might be:
Amount before discount: $600.00
Discount applied: 15%
Discount dollar amount: $90.00
Amount after discount: $510.00
Code Implementation
LastName_Chap3_PE12.py
"""
This program calculates the total purchase amount, the discount, and the final total
based on quantity purchased and unit price. It applies different discount rates
depending on the quantity ordered.
"""
Input prompts
quantity = int(input("Enter the quantity purchased: "))
unit_price = float(input("Enter the unit price: "))
Calculate total amount before discount
total_before_discount = quantity * unit_price
Determine discount percentage based on quantity
if quantity >= 50:
discount_rate = 0.15
elif quantity >= 20:
discount_rate = 0.10
elif quantity >= 10:
discount_rate = 0.05
else:
discount_rate = 0.0
Calculate discount dollar amount
discount_amount = total_before_discount * discount_rate
Calculate total after discount
total_after_discount = total_before_discount - discount_amount
Output results
print("\n--- Purchase Summary ---")
print(f"Amount before discount: ${total_before_discount:.2f}")
print(f"Discount percentage: {discount_rate * 100:.0f}%")
print(f"Discount dollar amount: ${discount_amount:.2f}")
print(f"Amount after discount: ${total_after_discount:.2f}")
Conclusion
This Python program effectively calculates and displays the total purchase amount, applicable discounts, and final payable amount, fulfilling the specified assignment criteria. Proper documentation and formatting ensure clarity and compliance with submission guidelines.
