Please help!

I am a student at Axia College. I have an assignment due tonight,
that I do not have a clue how to do. I am not going into Programming,
but this class is a required class to go on to the next classes in
IT. Can someone please help.

Here is the assignment:

You are an accountant setting up a payroll system for a small firm.
Each line of the table in Appendix G (posted below) indicates an
employee's salary range and corresponding base tax amount and tax
percentage. Given a salary amount, the tax is calculated by adding the
base tax for that salary range and the product of percentage of excess
and the amount of salary over the minimum salary for that range.
· Design a program that solves this problem.
· Generate a set of input test values.
· Perform a design walkthrough to verify your design.

Appendix G:

Sequential and Selection Process Control Structure
In the following example, the second line of the table specifies that
tax due on a salary of $2000.00 is $225.00 plus 16% of excess salary
over $1500.00 (that is, 16% of $500.00). Therefore, the total tax is
$225.00 + $80.00, or $305.00.

Salary Range in Dollars Base Tax in Dollars Percentage of Excess
1 0.00-1,499.99 0.00 15 %
2 1,500.00-2,999.99 225.00 16 %
3 3,000.00-4,999.99 465.00 18 %
4 5,000.00-7,999.99 825.00 20 %
5 8,000.00-14,999.99 1425.00 25 %
