Write the pseudocode for an application that allows a user to enter the price of an item and computes 8 percent sales tax on the item and prints out for the user the original price and the tax but not the total.

Using a word processor of your choice, write the pseudocode for an application that allows a user to enter the

price of an item and computes 8 percent sales tax on the item and prints out for the user the original price and
the tax but not the total.

Example output:
Your item's price is $5.00 and the tax is $0.40

STEVE

i don't understand what should first write

this kind of code is about as simple as it gets. I don't know what language you plan to use, but do a little google to see how others have performed the operations you desire. There are lots of code snippets on line.

Write pseudocode for a program that calculates a customer’s total price after tax. The program will ask the user for the price of the item they are buying. Then the program will add a 5% tax to the item and output the final price. So if I tell the program my item costs $20.00 the output will be: Your total after tax is $21.00

Using a word processor of your choice, write the pseudocode for an application that allows a user to enter the

price of an item ($5.00) and computes 8 percent sales tax on the item and prints out for the user the original price and
the tax but not the total.

To write the pseudocode for the application that computes 8 percent sales tax on an item, you can follow these steps:

1. Start by defining the variables that will be used in the program:
- itemPrice (float) : to store the price entered by the user
- salesTax (float) : to store the computed sales tax
- originalPrice (float) : to store the original price (without tax)

2. Prompt the user to enter the item price:
- Display a message asking the user to enter the price of the item.
- Read the input value and store it in the itemPrice variable.

3. Compute the sales tax:
- Multiply the itemPrice by 8 percent (0.08), and store the result in the salesTax variable.

4. Compute the original price:
- Subtract the salesTax from the itemPrice, and store the result in the originalPrice variable.

5. Print the results:
- Display the originalPrice and salesTax to the user.
- Format the output in a user-friendly way.

Here's the pseudocode for the application:

```
// Define variables
itemPrice : float
salesTax : float
originalPrice : float

// Prompt the user to enter item price
Display "Enter the price of the item:"
Read itemPrice

// Compute sales tax
salesTax = itemPrice * 0.08

// Compute original price
originalPrice = itemPrice - salesTax

// Print results
Display "Original Price: $" + originalPrice
Display "Sales Tax: $" + salesTax
```

Please note that pseudocode is a simplified programming language that represents the logic of the program without strict syntax rules. The actual implementation may vary depending on the programming language you are using.

read price

tax = price * 0.08
print price,tax
