Employee.java

public class Employee {

private String firstName, lastName, id;

private boolean bonus; // whether the Employee is eligible for a bonus

public Employee(String firstName, String lastName, String id, boolean bonus) {

this.firstName = firstName;

this.lastName = lastName;

this.id = id;

this.bonus = bonus;

}

public String getFirstName() {

return firstName;

}

public void setFirstName(String firstName) {

this.firstName = firstName;

}

public String getLastName() {

return lastName;

}

public void setLastName(String lastName) {

this.lastName = lastName;

}

public String getId() {

return id;

}

public void setId(String id) {

this.id = id;

}

public boolean isBonus() {

return bonus;

}

public void setBonus(boolean bonus) {

this.bonus = bonus;

}

@Override

public String toString() {

return "Employee: " + lastName + ", " + firstName + " (ID: " + id + ")" +

(bonus ? " (Eligible for Bonus)" : "");
