Can anyone see why the function "option3" isn't calculating the values for pmt and totalRetirement? The program runs, but I get 0's for those values. If I remove the function and place the code directly into the case option, the calculations work.
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <cmath>
using namespace std;
void option1(int retirementYears)
{
cout << "You have " << retirementYears << " years until retirement." << endl;
}
void option2(int retirementYears)
{
int salary;
cout << "How much do you make per week in dollars? ";
cin >> salary;
cout << "You will earn $" << (salary * 52) * retirementYears << " between now and retirement." << endl;
}
void option3(int retirementYears)
{
int salary, savingsRate = 0, n = 0;
double totalRetirement = 0, pmt, wr = 0;
wr = .06/52;
pmt = (salary * (savingsRate/100));
n = retirementYears * 52;
totalRetirement = pmt * ((pow((1 + wr), n)) - 1) / wr;
cout << "How much do you make per week in dollars? ";
cin >> salary;
cout << "What percentage will you save? ";
cin >> savingsRate;
cout << "There are " << retirementYears << " years till retirement." << endl;
cout << "pmt is " << pmt << endl;
cout << "wr is " << wr << endl;
cout << "n is " << n << endl;
cout << "You will have $" << totalRetirement << " saved when you retire." << endl;
}
int main()
{
string name;
int age, option, retirementYears = 0;
double pmt = 0;
cout << "What is your name? ";
getline(cin, name);
cout << "How old are you? ";
cin >> age;
if (age >= 60)
{
retirementYears = 65 - age;
}
if ((age >= 50 ) && (age < 60 ))
{
retirementYears = 67 - age;
}
if ((age >= 40) && (age < 50))
{
retirementYears = 70 - age;
}
if (age < 40)
{
retirementYears = 72 - age;
}
do
{
cout << "Please select an option: " << endl;
cout << "\t(1) Number of years to retirement" << endl;
cout << "\t(2) Amount earned between now and retirement" << endl;
cout << "\t(3) Amount saved at retirement" << endl;
cout << "\t(4) Exit (do nothing)" << endl;
cin >> option;
switch (option)
{
case 1:
option1(retirementYears);
break;
case 2:
option2(retirementYears);
break;
case 3:
option3(retirementYears);
break;
case 4:
cout << endl;
break;
default:
cout << "Please choose a valid option." << endl;
cout << endl;
break;
}
}
while (option != 4);
cout << "Thanks for using our program!" << endl;
}
