Need help in coding below problem

You are provided with employee’s data of an airline. The company has just gone through a salary review. You have to determine the new salary of eligible employees with their names as per the rules provided

Salary hike rules:

All pilots with a rating 1, 2 and 3 get a salary hike of 20%, 12% and 8% respectively
All non-pilots with a rating 1, 2 and 3 get a salary hike of 12%, 6% and 4% respectively
All employees who are promoted get an additional 10% hike

Hi:

What code have you tried? Have you written the code to read the data files into SAS tables? How do you envision processing the data to calculate the new salaries? Using a DATA step program/programs or using SQL? What is the final result of the program? Do you need a report? Or do you need a dataset with the new salaries?

Cynthia has valid questions that should be answered to give a more exact answer. Here is pseudo proc sql that should get you going:

proc sql;

create table output as

select

em.name,

s.current_salary,

case

when e.profile = 'Pilot' and r.promotion = 0 and r.rating = 1 then s.current_salary * 1.2

when e.profile = 'Pilot' and r.promotion = 0 and r.rating = 2 then s.current_salary * 1.12

when e.profile = 'Pilot' and r.promotion = 0 and r.rating = 3 then s.current_salary * 1.08

when e.profile != 'Pilot' and r.promotion = 0 and r.rating = 1 then s.current_salary * 1.12

when e.profile != 'Pilot' and r.promotion = 0 and r.rating = 2 then s.current_salary * 1.06

when e.profile != 'Pilot' and r.promotion = 0 and r.rating = 3 then s.current_salary * 1.04

when e.profile = 'Pilot' and r.promotion = 1 and r.rating = 1 then s.current_salary * 1.2 + s.current_salary * .1

when e.profile = 'Pilot' and r.promotion = 1 and r.rating = 2 then s.current_salary * 1.12 + s.current_salary * .1

when e.profile = 'Pilot' and r.promotion = 1 and r.rating = 3 then s.current_salary * 1.08 + s.current_salary * .1

when e.profile != 'Pilot' and r.promotion = 1 and r.rating = 1 then s.current_salary * 1.12 + s.current_salary * .1

when e.profile != 'Pilot' and r.promotion = 1 and r.rating = 2 then s.current_salary * 1.06 + s.current_salary * .1

when e.profile != 'Pilot' and r.promotion = 1 and r.rating = 3 then s.current_salary * 1.04 + s.current_salary * .1

end as new_salary

from

rating r,

employeemaster e,

salary s

where

e.employee_id = s.employee_id

and e.employee_id = r.employee_id;

quit;
