Problem Description

Given the attached class named Item with fields for holding the item's name and description, extend Item with a class named SaleItem. The SaleItem class should have double fields for price and shipping cost, and an int field for the number of items in stock. Write a copy constructor and a constructor that takes data to instantiate all fields. Write a boolean method purchase that takes a quantity as a parameter and returns true if the purchase can be completed (if theres enough stock), and false otherwise. The purchase method should appropriately deduct from the field that holds the number of items in stock. Write a restock method that takes a quantity and adds it to the stock. Write accessors for price and shipping cost, and write a toString() method for SaleItem. Write exactly the methods described here, and no others. Include exactly the fields described here, and no others.

A SaleItem object's toString should produce a string that looks like this example:

Lovely shirt
Blue shirt that is lovely.
Price: $9.99
Shipping: $4.95

Write another class called AuctionItem that extends the Item class. AuctionItem should have one constant, accessible from outside the class - NONE, of type String, representing the high bidder when there are no bids in the auction. It should have three private fields: one for the account name of the high bidder (a String) and one for the high bid (a double). It should also have a field for the ending time of the auction, which will be an instance of the Instant class. (See the appendix at the end of this assignment for help with the Instant class.)

The AuctionItem class should have two constructors - a copy constructor and an argument constructor. In the copy constructor, all fields should be copied from the object passed in. In the argument constructor, the arguments passed in will be those needed to instantiate the superclass object and one other -- an integer duration, which is the number of hours that the auction should last. The high bid field will be initialized to 0, the high bidder field will be initialized to NONE, and the ending time field will be initialized to a time that is duration hours from the current time.

The AuctionItem class should have a method isActive, which returns true if the auction is still active and false otherwise. An auction is active if it hasn't yet ended. Whether it has ended depends on the current time and the ending time.

It should have a bid method, which takes an amount (double) and the bidder (String) as parameters and returns a boolean - true if the bid was successful (auction still active and bid higher than high bid), and false otherwise.

It should have two accessors - getTimeLeft, which returns the amount of time left in seconds, and getHighBidder. It should have a toString method.

An AuctionItem object's toString should produce a String that looks like this example:

Disney pin
Cute stylized Pluto pin!
High bid: $1.00
High Bidder: Princess4Evar
Time Left: 23 hours, 59 minutes
Ends at: 2018-01-14T00:22:58.662903800Z

Focus on inheritance first and getting the parts of the class that use the Instant object working second, after you're confident youve written a correct inheritance hierarchy.

You've been provided with an ItemClient java program that should work with your classes, if your classes are implemented to specifications. The output of this program should be self explanatory. Do not edit this program.

Please create a class diagram showing the three classes and the inheritance relationship.

Design constraints

Use only techniques that are covered in chapters 1-8 and 10 of Gaddis/Muganda or covered in this course. Output to the console should be from the ItemClient program only (your classes should not interact with the end user in any way). Do not, under any circumstances, use System.exit, or any other code (e.g. return, break) that artificially breaks out of a logically controlled block of code (conditional statement or loop).
