\nThe purpose of this assignment is to assess your progress towards attainment of a selection of the
\nlearning objectives as covered up to week 10, with an emphasis on topics of weeks 3 through 10.
\nOn successful completion of this assignment you should have demonstrated that you are able to:
\n\u00b7 Write a program consisting of multiple objects which interact with each other by following
\nappropriate design practices
\n\u00b7 Write a program that provides the requested functionality for the system
\n\u00b7 Implement classes which have generalization relationships with other classes
\n\u00b7 Utilise polymorphism and abstraction techniques
\n\u00b7 Utilise appropriate collection classes in appropriate ways\/places
\n\u00b7 Read data from and write data to text files
\n\u00b7 Handle exceptions by constructing try \u2026 catch blocks for appropriate circumstances
\n\u00b7 Create a JFrame and correctly use a JList component.<\/p>\n
\n\u00b7 Write event handling code to respond to events generated by user actions
\n\u00b7 Read data from and write data to binary files
\nThe assignment may cause you to demonstrate that you have attained other learning objectives; the
\nabove list is not necessarily exhaustive. However, we are not expecting you to demonstrate
\nattainment of learning objectives from week 11 onwards. The above items essentially form the
\ncriteria against which you will be assessed.<\/p>\n
\nThis assignment requires you to write an application that meets a list of provided functional and
\ndesign requirements, utilising the concepts and techniques taught in this course. You will write your
\nown classes that will create a text-menu based program which has a small GUI component as well.
\nYou will be required to develop your application using Java (preferably in the Eclipse IDE). You
\nwill need to add all your work to a zip file when you are finished and submit it on Moodle by the
\ndue date. You will also need to submit a report which will require some written information
\ndescribing your system as well as addressing design and testing requirements which will be outlined
\nbelow. Please write this supporting documentation clearly and IN YOUR OWN WORDS
\n(plagiarism is NOT acceptable \u2013 refer to Course Description).
\nBefore you begin, read over this entire assignment and understand all the tasks.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\nFor this assignment, you will create a program that provides the user with access to a range of
\ninformation about matters surrounding a securities market.
\nA Securities market, is a place where people can buy and sell shares or units (or other similar
\nthings, which are collectively named \u2018securities\u2019), that represent an ownership interest in some
\norganisation (usually a company). For example, the Australian Stock Exchange is a securities
\nmarket, and some of the companies whose shares are sold\/bought include Telstra, BHP, the major
\nbanks such as ANZ or CBA. An ownership interest arises when the company decides that it wants
\nto raise some money (to pursue its business objectives), but doesn\u2019t want to get a loan from a bank \u2013
\ninstead, they invite investors to provide the money. For example, Telstra may decide to offer or
\nissue 1 million new shares, and you might choose to buy 1000 of them, each for $5.50. Assuming
\nTelstra already had 9 million shares issued to existing shareholders, you would then own 1000 out
\nof 10,000,000 of the total shares, or 0.01% of the company. Other people would own the other
\nshares. Offering of new shares is a rare event \u2013 for example, usually a company makes no more than
\n1 offer of new shares per year.<\/p>\n
\nperhaps the investor above decides to sell their shares after having owned them for 3 months. To
\nactually sell them, there has to be someone else who is willing to buy them. Therefore the owner of
\nthe shares can offer their set of shares at a particular price. The investor described above may offer
\ntheir 1000 shares for $5.75 each. If a second investor is happy to pay that price, the transfer of
\nownership of those 1000 shares goes ahead in exchange for the money.
\nHowever, maybe there is nobody willing to pay $5.75, because those who are interested in
\nacquiring shares in the company do not feel that the shares are \u2018worth\u2019 that much. Perhaps they
\nthink a more appropriate price would be $5.65, so they can make an offer to buy, or $5.65 and the
\nseller(s) can decide if they are willing to accept that lower price.
\nSo the price at which shares are traded from one investor to another investor, depends on the prices
\nthat both the buyer (and seller) are willing to pay (or receive). In a given day, the price could
\nfluctuate, but there will be a highest price and a lowest price, and there will be a closing price or
\n\u2018last price used\u2019 for the day which is the price of the last transaction that occurred.<\/p>\n
\nform of announcements.
\nExamples of some announcements are:
\n\u00b7 A company announces that it is going to give a dividend to each investor. In this case, they
\nannounce how many cents they will pay to investor for each share that the investor holds.
\nFor example, if Telstra decides to pay a 15 cents dividend, then the person above who had
\n1000 shares will get 1000 x $0.15, or a total of $150 \u2013 just for owning the shares. (This is a
\nkey reason why people would want to own shares \u2013 to receive dividend payments). They
\nremain an owner of the shares after the dividend is paid, unless they choose to sell the
\nshares. In the real world, the date of the payment can be up to several months in the future,
\nbut for this program, assume that the dividend is paid on the date of the announcement.<\/p>\n
\nperformance for a 12 month period) is now available. It is significant as it indicates how
\nwell or bad the company \u2018did\u2019 for the period, which might indicate the likelihood that it will
\nor won\u2019t be able to pay dividends in the future, and so it might influence whether the
\ninvestor will buy or sell shares, and the price at which people are willing to buy shares for.
\n\u00b7 A company announces a change to its Board of Directors, which is the group of people who
\nbasically \u2018run\u2019 the company at the very top (above the Chief Executive Officer \/ CEO). For
\nexample, one of the directors may be leaving, or a new director may be starting. It is
\nsignificant because investors may judge that the future performance of the company could
\nchange for better or worse as a result of the change to the board of directors. It might
\ninfluence whether the investor will buy or sell shares.<\/p>\n
\nreleased a major new product to customers, that it has sold a building that it previously
\nowned, that it began operating a new coal mine, or something else that is significant, and
\nwhich could impact on the finances of the company in the future.
\n\u00b7 An investor announces that it has become, or else that it no longer is, a \u2018substantial
\ninvestor\u2019. For the purpose of this assignment, assume that by \u2018substantial\u2019 is meant that the
\ninvestor owns more than 25% of the total issued shares or units of the company. Using the
\nTelstra example of there being 10 million shares, and assume that the ANZ bank owns 2
\nmillion of those shares on a Monday. The bank is not currently a substantial shareholder.
\nBut on Tuesday it buys 300,000 shares from other investors who were selling their shares,
\nand then on Wednesday it buys 200,000 more shares from other investors. On Wednesday,
\nthe bank now owns 2.5 million shares, and therefore has become a \u2018substantial investor\u2019.
\nPerhaps this is just before the dividend is paid, and then a week after the dividend was paid,
\nthe bank sells 100,000 of the shares so it now owns less than 2.5 million shares. It is no
\nlonger a substantial investor. These events are significant information, because a substantial
\ninvestor may have sufficient power in voting at meetings of the company, to determine the
\nfuture direction or behaviour of the company, which might influence whether other investors
\nwant to buy or sell their shares.<\/p>\n
\ndifferent companies. The system you develop will simulate a variety of the above types of events
\nfor just a small set of companies, obtaining the data from a set of files, and allowing the user to
\nproduce a range of reports or other queries for information. Note however, that the set of files which
\nthe marker will use will be different to the set which is given to you to work with.<\/p>\n
\nThis section outlines the functionality required to be provided by the program that you write for the
\nassignment. Keep in mind that you need to address the criteria against which the work will be
\njudged (the assessment criteria), when you implement the following behaviour of the system.
\nFR-1: Ability to store\/recall basic information about a company in memory
\nThe following information, at minimum, needs to be recorded for a company about which the
\nsystem knows and which the user can specify for generate reports or performing queries:
\n\u00b7 The name of the company (e.g. \u201cTelstra\u201d)
\n\u00b7 A three-letter code for the company (\u201cTLS\u201d)
\n\u00b7 The current number of shares that are issued by the company (assume this remains constant
\nafter obtaining value from the file)
\n\u00b7 The closing price for share trades on the \u2018previous\u2019 day.<\/p>\n
\nto use hard-coded data in the early stages of your work).
\nIt must be possible that, by using the three-letter code for the company, you would be able to
\nretrieve the other information about the company (for this FR: at least the name and the number of
\nshares).
\nFR-2: Ability to simulate the passing of days
\nWhen the program commences, you should assume the information in the system represents facts
\nabout the share market prior to the commencement of day 1. (Another way of thinking of this is: it
\nis the status of the share market when it closed the previous day). All reports and queries will only
\nneed to operate on information arising from events\/transactions arising on or after day 1.
\nThere needs to be a mechanism for the user to tell the program that it is now time to process the
\ndata about another day. The data will be stored in files that need to be read and processed, as
\nexplained in other FRs. Once processed, that data is available to be included in generating reports or
\nqueries.<\/p>\n
\nTask-1: Plan your program
\nConsider the functional and additional design requirements, and determine which classes you will
\nneed to implement. In the Word document, write a short description of the role\/purpose of each
\nclass that you have in your program \u2013 please sort them in alphabetic order by class name.
\nTask-2: Code a functioning program that addresses the behavioural and additional design
\nrequirements
\nWrite the classes that you have determined are needed to make a functioning program. The program
\nshould mostly be a text-menu based program, meaning that after setting up the system, it should
\npresent the user with a list of options of what action they would like to perform next, and then does
\nthe corresponding action, looping this until the user chooses to exit the program. You should aim to
\nwrite code following high quality coding practices that have been taught in this course this semester
\n\u2013 including comments, trapped exceptions and exhibiting good design where code is separated into
\nseparate methods.
\nTask-3: Ensure all supplementary documentation is complete.
\nGo through you Word document and make sure that everything required to be included, has actually
\nbeen included and is complete.<\/p>\n![\"chat](\"http:\/\/assignmenttask.com\/assignment-sample\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/chat-now-300x113.png\")
