Sequential and Selection Process Control Structure

employee’s salary range and corresponding base tax amount and tax percentage. Given a salary amount, the tax is calculated by adding the base tax for that salary range and the product of percentage of excess and the amount of salary over the minimum salary for that range.

In the following example, the second line of the table specifies that tax due on a salary of $2000.00 is $225.00 plus 16% of excess salary over $1500.00 (that is, 16% of $500.00). Therefore, the total tax is $225.00 + $80.00, or $305.00.

| |Salary Range in Dollars |Base Tax in Dollars |Percentage of Excess |
|1. 1|0.00-1,499.99 |0.00 |15 % |
|2. 2|1,500.00-2,999.99 |225.00 |16 % |
|3. 3|3,000.00-4,999.99 |465.00 |18 % |
|4. 4|5,000.00-7,999.99 |825.00 |20 % |
|5. 5|8,000.00-14,999.99 |1425.00 |25 % |
