Bank Account Program.

**Punky0214** · November 17th, 2010, 03:28 AM

I have created a Bank Account program and have run into an issue.

Here is my code:

AccountDriver:

//Demonstrates the BankAccount and derived classes
 
import java.text.*;			// to use Decimal Format
 
public class AccountDriver
{
	public static void main(String[] args)
	{
		double put_in = 500;
		double take_out = 1000;
 
		DecimalFormat myFormat;
		String money;
		String money_in;
		String money_out;
		boolean completed;
 
		// to get 2 decimals every time
		myFormat = new DecimalFormat("#.00");
 
		//to test the Checking Account class
		CheckingAccount myCheckingAccount =
				new CheckingAccount ("Benjamin Franklin", 1000);
		System.out.println ("Account Number "
			+ myCheckingAccount.getAccountNumber() + "-10"+
			" belonging to " + myCheckingAccount.getOwner());
		money  = myFormat.format(myCheckingAccount.getBalance());
		System.out.println ("Initial balance = $" + money);
		myCheckingAccount.deposit (put_in);
		money_in = myFormat.format(put_in);
		money  = myFormat.format(myCheckingAccount.getBalance());
		System.out.println ("After deposit of $" + money_in
			+ ",  balance = $" + money);
		completed = myCheckingAccount.withdraw(take_out);
		money_out = myFormat.format(take_out);
		money  = myFormat.format(myCheckingAccount.getBalance());
		if (completed)
		{
			System.out.println ("After withdrawal of $" + money_out
					+ ",  balance = $" + money);
		}
		else
		{
			System.out.println ("Insuffient funds to withdraw $"
					+ money_out	+ ",  balance = $" + money);
		}
		System.out.println();
 
		//to test the savings account class
		SavingsAccount yourAccount =
				new SavingsAccount ("William Shakespeare", 400);
		System.out.println ("Account Number "
				+ yourAccount.getAccountNumber() +"-0"+
				" belonging to " + yourAccount.getOwner());
		money  = myFormat.format(yourAccount.getBalance());
		System.out.println ("Initial balance = $" + money);
		yourAccount.deposit (put_in);
		money_in = myFormat.format(put_in);
		money  = myFormat.format(yourAccount.getBalance());
		System.out.println ("After deposit of $" + money_in
				+ ",  balance = $" + money);
		completed = yourAccount.withdraw(take_out);
		money_out = myFormat.format(take_out);
		money  = myFormat.format(yourAccount.getBalance());
		if (completed)
		{
			System.out.println ("After withdrawal of $" + money_out
				+ ",  balance = $" + money);
		}
		else
		{
			System.out.println ("Insuffient funds to withdraw $"
				+ money_out	+ ",  balance = $" + money);
		}
		yourAccount.postInterest();
		money  = myFormat.format(yourAccount.getBalance());
		System.out.println ("After monthly interest has been posted,"
				+ "balance = $"	+ money);
		System.out.println();
 
 
		// to test the copy constructor of the savings account class
		SavingsAccount secondAccount =
				new SavingsAccount (yourAccount,5);
		System.out.println ("Account Number "
				+ secondAccount.getAccountNumber()+"-1"+
				" belonging to " + secondAccount.getOwner());
		money  = myFormat.format(secondAccount.getBalance());
		System.out.println ("Initial balance = $" + money);
		secondAccount.deposit (put_in);
		money_in = myFormat.format(put_in);
		money  = myFormat.format(secondAccount.getBalance());
		System.out.println ("After deposit of $" + money_in
				+ ", balance = $" + money);
		secondAccount.withdraw(take_out);
		money_out = myFormat.format(take_out);
		money  = myFormat.format(secondAccount.getBalance());
		if (completed)
		{
			System.out.println ("After withdrawal of $" + money_out
					+ ",  balance = $" + money);
		}
		else
		{
			System.out.println ("Insuffient funds to withdraw $"
					+ money_out	+ ",  balance = $" + money);
		}
		System.out.println();
 
		//to test to make sure new accounts are numbered correctly
		CheckingAccount yourCheckingAccount =
				new CheckingAccount ("Issac Newton", 5000);
		System.out.println ("Account Number "
				+ yourCheckingAccount.getAccountNumber()
				+ " belonging to "
				+ yourCheckingAccount.getOwner());
 
	}
}

BankAccount:

//Defines any type of bank account
 
public abstract class BankAccount
{
	// class variable so that each account has a unique number
	protected static int numberOfAccounts = 100001;
 
	// current balance in the account
	private double balance;
	// name on the account
	private String owner;
	// number bank uses to identify account
	private String accountNumber;
 
	//default constructor
	public BankAccount()
	{
		balance = 0;
		accountNumber = numberOfAccounts + "";
		numberOfAccounts++;
	}
 
	//standard constructor
	public BankAccount(String name, double amount)
	{
		owner = name;
		balance = amount;
		accountNumber = numberOfAccounts + "";
		numberOfAccounts++;
	}
 
	//copy constructor
	public BankAccount(BankAccount oldAccount, double amount)
	{
		owner = oldAccount.owner;
		balance = amount;
		accountNumber = oldAccount.accountNumber;
	}
 
	//allows you to add money to the account
	public void deposit(double amount)
	{
		balance = balance + amount;
	}
 
	//allows you to remove money from the account if
	//enough money is available
	//returns true if the transaction was completed
	//returns false if the there was not enough money
	public boolean withdraw(double amount)
	{
		boolean completed = true;
 
		if (amount <= balance)
		{
			balance = balance - amount;
		}
		else
		{
			completed = false;
		}
		return completed;
	}
 
	//accessor method to balance
	public double getBalance()
	{
		return balance;
	}
 
	//accessor method to owner
	public String getOwner()
	{
		return owner;
	}
 
	//accessor method to account number
	public String getAccountNumber()
	{
		return accountNumber;
	}
 
	//mutator method to change the balance
	public void setBalance(double newBalance)
	{
		balance = newBalance;
	}
 
	//mutator method to change the account number
	public void setAccountNumber(String newAccountNumber)
	{
		accountNumber = newAccountNumber;
	}
}

SavingsAccount:

public class SavingsAccount extends BankAccount
   {
      public SavingsAccount(String string, double rate)
      {
      interestRate = rate; 
      }
      public SavingsAccount(SavingsAccount yourAccount, int rate) {
 
      }
      public void addInterest() 
      {
      double interest = getBalance() * interestRate / 100; 
      deposit(interest); 
      }
      private double interestRate; 
 
 
 
      public void deposit(double amount) {} 
      public boolean withdraw(double amount) {
      return false;} 
      public void deductFees() {} 
      private int transactionCount;
 
 
 
   public void postInterest() {
      double balance = getBalance();
      balance += (balance * interestRate);
      deposit(balance);
 
   }     
   }

My issue is in the SavingsAccount class.

This is expected output:

Account Number 100001-10 belonging to Benjamin Franklin
Initial balance = $1000.00
After deposit of $500.00,  balance = $1500.00
After withdrawal of $1000.00,  balance = $499.85
 
Account Number 100002-0 belonging to William Shakespeare
Initial balance = $400.00
After deposit of $500.00,  balance = $900.00
Insuffient funds to withdraw $1000.00,  balance = $900.00
After monthly interest has been posted,balance = $901.88
 
Account Number 100002-1 belonging to William Shakespeare
Initial balance = $5.00
After deposit of $500.00, balance = $505.00
Insuffient funds to withdraw $1000.00,  balance = $505.00
 
Account Number 100003-10 belonging to Issac Newton

This is the output I'm getting:

Account Number 100001-10 belonging to Benjamin Franklin
Initial balance = $1000.00
After deposit of $500.00,  balance = $1500.00
After withdrawal of $1000.00,  balance = $500.00
 
Account Number 100002-0 belonging to null
Initial balance = $.00
After deposit of $500.00,  balance = $.00
Insuffient funds to withdraw $1000.00,  balance = $.00
After monthly interest has been posted,balance = $.00
 
Account Number 100003-1 belonging to null
Initial balance = $.00
After deposit of $500.00, balance = $.00
Insuffient funds to withdraw $1000.00,  balance = $.00
 
Account Number 100004 belonging to Issac Newton

Why are none of my transactions working correctly?? How do I fix it?

Here were my instructions from my assignment.

5. Create a new class called SavingsAccount that extends BankAccount.

6. It should contain an instance variable called rate that represents the annual interest rate. Set it equal to 2.5%.

7. It should also have an instance variable called savingsNumber, initialized to 0. In this bank, you have one account number, but can have several savings accounts with that same number. Each individual savings account is identified by the number following a dash. For example, 100001-0 is the first savings account you open, 100001-1 would be another savings account that is still part of your same account. This is so that you can keep some funds separate from the others, like a Christmas club account.

8. An instance variable called accountNumber that will hide the accountNumber from the superclass, should also be in this class.

9. Write a constructor that takes a name and an initial balance as parameters and calls the constructor for the superclass. It should initialize accountNumber to be the current value in the superclass accountNumber (the hidden instance variable) concatenated with a hyphen and then the savingsNumber.

10. Write a method called postInterest that has no parameters and returns no value. This method will calculate one month’s worth of interest on the balance and deposit it into the account.

Hint: formula to calculate one month interest is (balance * annual interest rate) / number of months

11. Write a method that overrides the getAccountNumber method in the superclass.

12. Write a copy constructor that creates another savings account for the same person. It should take the original savings account and an initial balance as parameters. It should call the copy constructor of the superclass, assign the savingsNumber to be one more than the savingsNumber of the original savings account. It should assign the accountNumber to be the accountNumber of the superclass concatenated with the hypen and the savingsNumber of the new account.

      public SavingsAccount(String string, double rate)
      {
      interestRate = rate; 
      }
      public SavingsAccount(SavingsAccount yourAccount, int rate) {
 
      }

Do you want the constructors to do anything with those parameters? Typically you will call super to call the parent constructor if you wish to assign those values to variables defined in the parent class.

BankAccount isn't abstract even though you've labeled it as such. It needs at least one abstract method.

You can have all other classes extend it directly or indirectly without having to make it abstract.

Abstract means that you might have a method that won't make sense in the superclass.

For instance,

if your BankAccount class had a method called getInterest(), it would be silly to define it in BankAccount as you'd need to know the account type in order to figure out how to do it.

Therefore, you'd make it abstract and all your subclasses, those that you could get the interest from because you know the account type and how interest is calculated with that account type, would have to define it or else be abstract themselves.

**javapenguin** · November 17th, 2010, 02:12 PM

public void deposit(double amount) {}
public boolean withdraw(double amount) {
return false;}

Your BankAccount class has a method called deposit that its subclasses all have and use unless they make their own by overridng or overloading it.

Any method you don't plan to overload or override, don't make it a method of your subclass. It already is by inheritance and you don't need to show it again.

**javapenguin** · November 17th, 2010, 02:16 PM

myFormat = new DecimalFormat("#.00");

What's that doing?

Could you just use %.2d or something?

**javapenguin** · November 17th, 2010, 02:23 PM

Perhaps if your BankAccount class had a method called setOwner()

public void setOwner(String owner2)
{
owner = owner2;
}

it might work.

Not true. Abstract Methods and Classes (The Java™ Tutorials > Learning the Java Language > Interfaces and Inheritance)

**javapenguin** · November 17th, 2010, 04:13 PM

Yeah, well technically abstract means that you have at least one method that you don't define in that class and leave it for subclasses to define.

How do I set my initial balance of my savings account to be $400.

Would it be something like this?

double initialBalance = getBalance();

**Punky0214** · November 17th, 2010, 10:00 PM

I created a bank account program but not sure how to set my initial balance of my savings account to $400.

//Defines any type of bank account
 
public abstract class BankAccount
{
	// class variable so that each account has a unique number
	protected static int numberOfAccounts = 100001;
 
	// current balance in the account
	private double balance;
	// name on the account
	private String owner;
	// number bank uses to identify account
	private String accountNumber;
 
	//default constructor
	public BankAccount()
	{
		balance = 0;
		accountNumber = numberOfAccounts + "";
		numberOfAccounts++;
	}
 
	//standard constructor
	public BankAccount(String name, double amount)
	{
		owner = name;
		balance = amount;
		accountNumber = numberOfAccounts + "";
		numberOfAccounts++;
	}
 
	//copy constructor
	public BankAccount(BankAccount oldAccount, double amount)
	{
		owner = oldAccount.owner;
		balance = amount;
		accountNumber = oldAccount.accountNumber;
	}
 
	//allows you to add money to the account
	public void deposit(double amount)
	{
		balance = balance + amount;
	}
 
	//allows you to remove money from the account if
	//enough money is available
	//returns true if the transaction was completed
	//returns false if the there was not enough money
	public boolean withdraw(double amount)
	{
		boolean completed = true;
 
		if (amount <= balance)
		{
			balance = balance - amount;
		}
		else
		{
			completed = false;
		}
		return completed;
	}
 
	//accessor method to balance
	public double getBalance()
	{
		return balance;
	}
 
	//accessor method to owner
	public String getOwner()
	{
		return owner;
	}
 
	//accessor method to account number
	public String getAccountNumber()
	{
		return accountNumber;
	}
 
	//mutator method to change the balance
	public void setBalance(double newBalance)
	{
		balance = newBalance;
	}
 
	//mutator method to change the account number
	public void setAccountNumber(String newAccountNumber)
	{
		accountNumber = newAccountNumber;
	}
}

SavingsAccount:

public class SavingsAccount extends BankAccount
   {
 
	  int savingsNumber=0;
 
	   double initialBalance = 400;
 
 
	  public SavingsAccount(String string, double rate)
      {
      interestRate = 2.5; 
      }
      public SavingsAccount(SavingsAccount yourAccount, int rate) {
 
      }
      public void addInterest() 
      {
      double interest = (getBalance() * interestRate / 100) / 12; 
      deposit(interest); 
      }
      private double interestRate; 
 
 
   public void postInterest() {
      double balance = getBalance();
      balance += (balance * interestRate);
      deposit(balance);
 
   }
 
   }

Here is expected output:

Account Number 100002-0 belonging to William Shakespeare
Initial balance = $400.00
After deposit of $500.00, balance = $900.00
Insuffient funds to withdraw $1000.00, balance = $900.00
After monthly interest has been posted,balance = $901.88

Here is the output I'm getting:

Account Number 100002 belonging to null
Initial balance = $.00
After deposit of $500.00, balance = $500.00
Insuffient funds to withdraw $1000.00, balance = $500.00
After monthly interest has been posted,balance = $2250.00
