This is a two part question.
Part 1
Write a class named Retail Item that holds data about an item in a retail store. The class should have the following fields:
- description. The description field references a String object that holds a brief description of the item.
- unitsOnHand. The unitsOnHand field is an int variable that holds number of units currently in inventory.
- price. The price field is a double that holds the item's retail price.
Write a constructor that accepts arguments for each field, appropriate mutator methods that store values in these fields, and accessor methods that return the values in these fields. Once you have written the class, write a separate program that creates three Retail Items objects and stores the following data in them:
Description Units on Hand Price
Item # 1 Jacket 12 59.95
Item # 2 Designer Jeans 40 34.95
Item # 3 Shirt 20 24.95
Part II
Using the Retail Item class above, write a Cash Register class. The Cash Register class should simulate the sale of a retail item. It should have a constructor that accepts a Retail Item object as an argument. The constructor should also accept an integer that represents the quantity of items being purchased. In addition, the class should have the following methods:
- The getSubtotal method should return the subtotal of the sale, which is the quantity multiplied by the price. This method must get the price from the Retail Item object that was passed as an argument to the constructor.
- The getTax method should return the amount of sales tax on the purchase. The sales tax rate is 6 percent of a retail sale.
- The getTotal method should return the total of the sale, which is the subtotal plus the sales tax.
Demonstrate the class in a program that asks the user for the quantity of items being purchased, and then displays the sale's subtotal, amount of sales tax, and total.
