For this Assignment, submit the following program:

Create a TaxReturn class with fields that hold a taxpayer's Social Security number, last name, first name, middle initial, zip code, annual income, marital status, number of vehicles owned, number of pets owned, and number of toasters owned. The StringBuilder class must be used in this Assignment. The program will calculate the tax liability based on annual income and the percentages in the following table:

	Marital Status
TOTAL Income in U.S. Dollars	Single	Married
0-15000	25%	24%
15001-49001	50%	49%
49002 and up	75%	74%

Note: the Tax class does not have the main method and can be used for objects instantiations only.

Create ShowTax  driver class with the main method. ShowTax  class instantiates myTax object of the Tax type and sets up its fields to values entered by a user.

Prompt the user to enter the data needed to output a summary of the information gathered. Make sure to ask for the information in the format you would like it from the user and adhere to the following:

• If the Social Security number contains more or less than 10 digits then reprompt for the information again
• Marital status must be either 'S' or 's' or 'M' or 'm'
• No negative incomes are allowed, so the value must be above zero

Social Security number 888-99-5623, last name Jones, first name Mkuy, middle initial L, zip code 12345, annual income 73564, marital status m, number of vehicles owned 5.

The ShowTax class should have the  DisplayTax method,   which takes  the data entered and  uses the CalculateTax method of myTax object to calculate tax liability and  then generates  the output information to be shown to a user making use of StringBuilder class.

The comment headers provided in Unit 1 should be added and completed. Write about block and scope in the comments  as you write codes in  the Tax class and ShowTax class.
