  1. Review the rubric to make sure you understand the criteria for earning your grade.
  2. Read Chapter 6 and selected sections of Chapter 9 in Introduction to Programming Using Visual Basic (11 Edition), and complete Application discussion practicing basic concepts of repetition and looping.
  3. Start with a new Visual Studio project. Write a Visual Basic program to address the requirements of Chapter 6’s “Programming Projects,” #8. Individual Retirement Account.
    1. Create form as depicted in the exercise (Figure 6.84).
    2. Additionally, include:
      1. A DropDownList combo box containing possible interest rates (at least 4%, 5%, 6%, and 7%)
      2. A Picture Box control for Larry and for Earl with a relevant image for each. Clipart Panda is recommended. Please review the Usage Terms for Clipart Panda.
      3. A Timer control
      4. (Optional) A scrollable List Box to display annual value of the IRA account of each person after compounding interest and adding the appropriate annual deposit—assists is debugging looping and calculation logic
      5. All additional controls listed in 4.4 Assignment item 2.b.
    3. Write the Visual Basic program to address the requirements of the exercise including:
      1. Being sure to compound interest and add the annual deposit in the correct order.
      2. The Calculate Amounts button will base compounding on the selected interest value in the DropDownList (default is 4%).
        1. Hint: Only attempt other interest values after you are sure your compounding works with 4%.
      3. The Picture Box images will display when the final retirement results are displayed.
      4. After results are displayed, the Timer control will cycle the image display (visible/not visible) every five seconds. It will stop the display cycle after six timer .Tick events (remember “lifetime of variables” in Chapter 5) with the image remaining visible.
    4. (Optional) Create a multiple form calculator.
      1. Add the Individual Retirement Account form to the multiple form project created in Workshop 4.
        1. Using the technique in Section 9.3, “Importing an Existing Form.”
        2. Add the Individual Retirement Account form to the existing project.
      2. Modify the Login Form.
        1. btnContinue should reflect that it calls the Loan Calculator form.
        2. An additional “IRA Calculator” button will display a “modal” IRA form created in this workshop.
    5. Apply all standards as depicted in 1.5 Assignment, introduced in the textbook, and reinforced in discussion forums.
    6. Remember: do not flounder. Use the Collaboration Forum to pose questions and share learning.
  4. Be sure to File>Save All your work (never use “Save As”). Close and exit Visual Studio.
  5. Create submission zip archive.
    1. Make a new folder including student name – “WorkshopFive LastNameFirstName” as in “WorkshopFive LovelaceAda”
    2. Copy exercise project folder to the submission folder.
    3. Create zip archive of the submission folder. In Windows Explorer, right click folder name, select “Send to” and
