Task 1
ABC Company decided to increase the salary of their employees based on the number of years
in service. Write a program using if…elif…else statement that will ask the user to input their
current salary and number of years in service. Compute and output the increase in salary and
the new salary as per the list below
Number of Years in Service Percent of increase
More than 10 years 10 percent
5 years to 10 years 5 percent
2 years to 4 years 3 percent
Less than 2 years 1 percent
Task 1 Answer (Screenshot + program code)
# Get user input for current salary and years in service
current_salary = float(input("Enter your current salary: $"))
years_in_service = int(input("Enter the number of years in service: "))
# Define the initial percent increase and then update it based on years in service
percent_increase = 0
if years_in_service > 10:

ICT-1011: Introduction to Programming and Problem Solving
percent_increase = 10
elif years_in_service >= 5:
percent_increase = 5
elif years_in_service >= 2:
percent_increase = 3
else:
percent_increase = 1
# Calculate the increase in salary and the new salary
increase = (percent_increase / 100) * current_salary
new_salary = current_salary + increase
# Display the results
print(f"Based on {years_in_service} years in service, you will receive a {percent_increase}% salary
increase.")
print(f"Your new salary will be: ${new_salary:.2f}")

Task 2
write a program using a Nested if statement that will ask for your age. You're not eligible to
buy a ticket if you’re less than 18 years old. If you’re less than 21 years or greater than 65 years,
your ticket is $15, otherwise it is $30.
Task 2 Answer (Screenshot + program code)
# Get user input for age
age = int(input("Enter your age: "))
# Check if the person is eligible to buy a ticket
if age < 18:
print("You are not eligible to buy a ticket.")
else:
if age < 21 or age > 65:
ticket_price = 15
else:
ticket_price = 30
print(f"Your ticket price is ${ticket_price}.")
