I need help with my Java homework!

Write a program that calculates a customer's monthly bill. It should ask the user to enter the letter of the package the customer has purchased (A, B, or C) and the number of hours that were used. It should then display the charges.

Modify the program so it calculates and displays the amount of money Packaage A customers would save if they purchased Packages B or C, and the amount of money Package B customers would save if they purchased Package C. If there would be no savings, no message should be printed.

Package A: For $9.95 per month 10 hours of access are provided. Additional hours are $2.00 per hour.

Package B: For $13.95 per month 20 hours of access are provided. Additional hours are $1.00 per hour.

Package C: For $19.95 per month unlimited acess is provided.

hope this helps
THANKS!

but how would I do the second part?

"Modify the program so it calculates and displays the amount of money Packaage A customers would save if they purchased Packages B or C, and the amount of money Package B customers would save if they purchased Package C. If there would be no savings, no message should be printed."

thanks,

Matt

Write a program that calculates a customer's monthly bill. It should ask the user via dialog box to enter the letter of the package the customer has purchased (A, B, or C) and the number of hours that were used. It should then display the charges in a dialog box. The input and out put must be done using the dialog boxes.

1. A local Satellite Television Company has assigned you to write an application that can calculate a customer’s monthly bill. There are two types of customers: Residential (has only one service connection) and Business (has one or more connections). Both customer types can subscribe to any number of premium channels. The monthly billing amount is the total of basic service fee plus the premium channels charge. The rates for the two customer types are as follows:

Basic Service Fee Premium Channels Charge
Residential RM20.00
RM7.50 per channel
Business RM75.00 for the first 10 connections; RM10 for each additional connection RM20.00 per channel for any number of connections
