Acustomer in a store is purchasing five items. design a program that asks for the price of each item, and then displays the subtotal of the sale, the amount of sales tax, and the total. assume the sales tax is 6 percent.

p. s. must be shown in psuedocode.

What language are you programming in? 

If you are programming in C or C++, you could do something like this: 

#include <iostream> 
using namespace std; 

int main(void) 
{ 
//declarations 
double item1 = 0; 
double item2 = 0; 
double item3 = 0; 
double item4 = 0; 
double item5 = 0; 
double subtotal = 0; 
double total = 0; 
double tax = 0; 

//Enter Items 
cout << "Please enter the price of item 1"; 
cin >> item1; 

cout << "Please enter the price of item 2"; 
cin >> item2; 

cout << "Please enter the price of item 3"; 
cin >> item3; 

cout << "Please enter the price of item 4"; 
cin >> item4; 

cout << "Please enter the price of item 5"; 
cin >> item5; 

//Compute subtotal 
subtotal = (item1 + item2 + item3 + item4 + item5 + item6); 

//Compute amount of tax 

tax = subtotal * (.06); 

//Compute total 

total = subtotal + tax; 

//Display subtotal, total, and amount of tax 

cout < " The subtotal of the sale is: " << subtotal << endl; 
cout < " The amount of sales tax is: " << tax << endl; 
cout < " The total of the sale is: " << total << endl; 

return 0; 

}//end of function main 

I know this is a very very basic C++ program but I hope it helps and good luck on your project!

Ihad the same question but i tested it out and it didn't work.
