How to do my java homework?

Tasks





Write a program that prints





Lab 3 written by YOURNAME





and calls two methods.





1-Compute and return the future value of an account based on the present value of the account, the interest rate, and the number of years.





2-Compute and return the future value of an annuity based on the payment per year, the interest rate, and the number of years.





For each method, the main method needs to obtain input from the user, call the method with the input values, save the result of the method in a local variable, and print the inputs and the result.





Details





Future Value Using Compound Interest





If the present value of an account is $1000 and the interest rate is 5%, then after one year, the account will increase by $50 (5% of $1000). In the second year, the interest applies to all $1050, so the account will increase by $52.50 (5% of $1050). Getting future interest on past interest is called compound interest. A general formula for future value assuming p is the present value, r is the interest rate, and y is the number of years is:





future value = p * (1 + r鈥?鈥?00)^鈥墆





Your method should have the following characteristics:





*It should have three double parameters:


-present value


-interest rate


-number of years


*It should return a double, the future value.


*It should use Math.pow in the calculation.


*It should not have any print statements. The main method should do all the printing.





Future Value of an Annuity





For a typical annuity, you pay a certain amount every year (or some other period of time) for so many years, and an interest rate is applied to your payments. It's like a bank account where you deposit money regularly and wait several years to withdraw anything. In return, you are guaranteed a certain interest rate.





For example, suppose the payment is $100 by the end of each year and the interest rate is 5%. In the first year, your annuity will be worth $100. In the second year, you get $5 interest (5% of $100), and you make a payment of $100, so the annuity will be worth $205 after two years. In the third year, you get $10.25 interest (5% of $205), and you make another payment of $100, so the annuity will be worth $315.25 after three years.





A general formula for the future value of an annuity assuming p is the yearly payment, r is the interest rate, and y is the number of years is:





future value=


p * (1 + r鈥?鈥?00)鈥塣y 鈥?1


-----------------------------


r/100


Your method should have the following characteristics:





*It should have three double parameters:


-yearly payment


-interest rate


-number of years


*It should return a double, the future value.


*It should use Math.pow in the calculation.


*It should not have any print statements. The main method should do all the printing.








Printing Money





When you are printing doubles, you will find out that Java often prints a lot of decimal places. To print out your monetary amounts as reasonable looking Strings, try the following method in your lab.





// Returns a String $dollars.cents rounded to the nearest cent.


// For example, moneyString(12.3456) returns "$12.35".


public static String moneyString(double amount) {


DecimalFormat dollarsAndCents = new DecimalFormat("$#0.00");


return dollarsAndCents.format(amount);


}


If you use this method, you'll need the following import statement at the top of your class.
