Java Programming

I'm a beginner to Java and I need to know how to do the following:

Write a program that will ask the user to enter the amount of a purchase. The program should then compute the state and county sales tax. Assume the state sales tax is 4 percent and the county sales tax is 2 percent. The program should display the amount of the purchase, the state sales tax, the county sales tax, the total sales tax, and the total of the sale (which is the sum of the amount of purchase plus the total sales tax). Hint: Use the value 0.02 to represent 2 percent, and 0.04 to represent 4 percent.

Can anybody help me?

  2. // Create a Scanner object to read input.
    Scanner keyboard = new Scanner(System.in);

    // Get the Purchase Amount
    System.out.print(" What is the Purchase Amount?");
    purchaseAmount=keyboard.nextDouble( );

    stateSalesTax=0.04*purchaseAmount;
    countySalesTax=0.02*purchaseAmount;
    totalSalesTax=stateSalesTax+countySalesTax;
    totalSale=totalSalesTax+purchaseAmount;

    System.out.println( " Purchase " + purchaseAmount);
    System.out.println( " State Tax " + stateSalesTax);
    System.out.println( " County Tax " + countySalesTax );
    System.out.println( " Total Tax " + totalSalesTax +"\n_________");
    System.out.println( " Total Sale " + totalSale);

    }
    }
