$1\mathrm{.}1$ ASSIGNMENT SPECIFICATION

This is a programming assignment, and you are required to write, run, test and evaluate Python program to solve the tasks based on the scenario given below.

Scenario ${?}_{(})$

You are asked to use your software design, development, testing and evaluation skills to produce a program that meets a client's requirements.

A local property agency has employed you to write a program that will help its sales manager. The sales manager needs to calculate the amount of commission paid to employees and determine which employee will receive a bonus for a week. The commission is based on the number of properties they sell.

Currently the property agency has $5$ employees, but new employees can be hired by the agency each week.

You need to create a program that will be used each week to:

Input employee name, employee ID number and number of properties sold for each employee working

calculate the sales commission paid to each employee

calculate the total commission the company must pay

calculate the total number of properties sold by the company

rank the employees in order of the number of properties they sold, from the highest number to the lowest number

apply a $15\%$ bonus to the commission of the employee with the most sales.

Commission rate

Commission is calculated at $500$ for each property sold.

Design a menu to show the following options:

an employee list in order of number of properties sold

the sales commission for each employee $($as GBP currency to two decimal places$)$

the total sales commission for the week $($as GBP currency to two decimal places$)$

the total number of properties sold in the week

employee of the week award $--$ the name and number of properties sold for the employee who has sold the most

bonus amount received by the employee of the week.

Do you want to use the menu again $(\frac{Y}{N})?$

For each menu option, the program is required to carry out the task and show the result.

When you are designing and developing the solution ensure that:

standard programming naming conventions have been followed

comments are used to explain your code

lists are used as data structure to store employee related details.

at least one function is defined and used.

you do NOT use $(),)$ and sort$()$ built$-$in functions.

it is efficient and robust

it is user friendly

it checks if the input provided by the user is valid and acceptable

the number of properties sold are recorded as natural numbers

You must design, implement and test your program. You must also justify and evaluate your decisions.
