RATELESS 0.218 /* rate of charge first 200 unit */
RATEMORE 0.334 /* rate of charge following unit */
PEN 0.015 /* penalty for unpaid balance */

Inputs int unit /* unit of electricity used */ float UnpaidBal /* unpaid balance */

Outputs float Penalty /* charge of penalty */ float UseCharge /* charge for the current electricity use */ float TotalBill /* total charge */

PROGRAM ALGORITHM (FLOW OF PROGRAM)
1. Display user instructions
2. Get data: unpaid balance and electricity unit used
3. Determine electricity unit used and compute use charge
4. Determine unpaid balance and compute penalty
5. Compute total charge
6. Display the total bill amount

DESIGN OF COMPUTATION OF USE CHARGE
The data required to compute the use charge are listed. We separate the involved data categories into Input, Process and Output.

Input Data int unit /* unit of electricity used */

Process Data
RATELESS 0.218 /* rate of charge first 200 unit */
RATEMORE 0.334 /* rate of charge following unit */

Output Data float UseCharge /* charge for the current electricity use */

Algorithm for Computation of Use Charge
We know that different rate will be used if the electricity unit used is more than 200. Thus we use if else selection to design the algorithm. if unit > 200 compute use charge for more than 200 unit else compute use charge for less than 200 unit

Formula for Use Charge
UseCharge=(unit-200)*RATEMORE+200*RATELESS /* more than 200 */
UseCharge=unit*RATELESS /* less than 200 */

DESIGN OF COMPUTATION OF PENALTY
The data required to compute the penalty are listed. We separate the involved data categories into Input, Process and Output.

Input Data float UnpaidBal /* unpaid balance */

The decision to be made was the monthly rental rate for two-bedroom rental apartments on temporary leases. The Property Manager needed to bring the vacancy rate from 28 percent to 15 percent and to maximize the revenue. To start, the vacancy rate was at 40 percent, revenue was 1.56 (in millions), surplus 800, quantity demanded 1,200 and rental rate $1,300. The vacancy rate down to 15 percent, the following changed: revenue was 1.79 (in millions), surplus 300, quantity demanded 1,700 and rental rate $1,050. Although the appropriate rental rate was selected to reduce the vacancy rate, the revenue was not maximized. In the end the revenue could have been increased by lowering both the rental and the vacancy…

    The Medical Billing Process is composed of ten different steps, each as equally important as the next. These ten steps are pre-register patients, establish financial responsibility, check in patients, review coding compliance, review billing compliance, check out patients, prepare and transmit claims, monitor payer adjudication, generate patient statements, and follow up payments and collections. When you bill a patient you want to be sure that you are not only doing it correctly but that you are charging or sending the bill to the right person whether it be the patient or the patients’ insurance company. With the ten steps to the medical billing process you want to make sure that you are doing it in the correct order. First you want to make sure that you are pre-registering the correct patient and that you are inputting their information as well as their insurance information in the system correctly. After this has been completed you are now able to schedule appointments for this patient. The next step in the process is to establish financial responsibility (who is paying for the medical bills), whether it be the patient or the insurance company. If the insurance company is assuming financial responsibility you want clarify what insurance plan the patient is falling under as well as what procedures are not covered and what financial responsibilities the patient may have (copayment). After all of this is complete, then comes checking in the patient. When checking in new patients, they need to fill out a detailed medical information sheet that will be kept on file and if they are not a new patient all they will do is review this sheet to see if anything has changed or needs to be updated. You also what to obtain a copy of their insurance card, both front and back and keep this on record as well. All medical diagnosis and procedures are given a medical code, these codes are extremely important when it comes to step four of the process, review coding compliance.…
