We provide our clients with the ability to pay for their employees’ benefits packages. A portion of these costs are deducted from their paycheck, and we handle that deduction. Please demonstrate how you would code the following scenario:

• The cost of benefits is $1000/year for each employee
• Each dependent (children and possibly spouses) incurs a cost of $500/year
• Anyone whose name starts with ‘A’ gets a 10% discount, employee or dependent

We’d like to see this calculation used in a web application where employers input employees and their dependents, and get a preview of the costs.

Please implement a web application based on these assumptions:

• All employees are paid $2000 per paycheck before deductions
• There are 26 paychecks in a year.

• "Name starts with 'A'" means first name starts with capital 'A' only.
• The benefits calculator is part of a larger app that does more than manage employees/benefits.

• To run the app:
  • CD ./source
  • Start the api: npm run api
  • In a new console window, start the ui: npm start

• dotnet core 2.1 SDK: https://www.microsoft.com/net/download/

• CD ./source
• API Unit Tests: npm run apitests
• API Integration Tests:
  • Start the api server: npm run api
  • In a new console window, run the tests: npm run apiintegrationtests

• security
• logging
• validation
• docs
• UI unit tests
• e2e tests

• Do not name postman collections with spaces. Use underscores instead.
• This is only my second sample in Angular. I'm still finding my way around.
