MIS2402-Project

In this project, I used an AI tool to create two special-purpose calculators. One being a loan repayment calculator and the second being an student budget/savings calculator.

The loan calculator works from being given a loan amount, a loan term (in years), and an annual percentage rate (APR). It then calculates a monthly payment, the total amount paid, and the total amount of interest paid. This tool can be helpful for those to keep track of monthly payments they are making and the amount of interest they are being charged for their loan.

The student budget/savings calculator calculator gives you the option to help you budget your weekly/bi-weekly/monthly expenses. As a college student for everyday expenses like going out, food, transportation, etc. Using this tool can ease the stress of college students trying to be frugal with the limited amount of money they have as of now.

I created a Mobile Detailing Profit Calculator as a self-directed technology project. My role was to design and build a web-based calculator that helps a mobile detailing business estimate profit by entering key information such as service price, supply costs, travel expenses, and labor time. Through this project, I applied my knowledge of HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and basic business analysis to create a tool that is both practical and user-friendly. I learned how technology can support small business decision-making by turning everyday costs and revenue information into clear financial insights. This project also strengthened my problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and ability to connect technical development with real business needs. https://misdemo.temple.edu/tus91458a/project2/

This project was part of my Web Development class. It taught me how to leverage my AI prompting knowledge to utilize AI’s technical coding skills and my knowledge of JavaScript to supervise the structure.  Calculator Project

In my MIS 2402 course at Temple University, I worked on a project where I used AI tools to help build and deploy two web-based calculators. My job was not just to generate the code using an AI chat application, but to actually test it, fix any issues, and get it running on a live web server using Bitvise. The first calculator was a loan repayment tool that figures out monthly payments and total interest based on a loan amount and APR. For the second one, I came up with my own idea and built an Investment Growth Calculator that helps users see how their money can grow over time based on things like monthly contributions and compound interest, which is useful for planning things like retirement or saving for college. Both applications were built using HTML, CSS, JavaScript, jQuery, and Bootstrap, and I had to make sure they handled bad or missing user input without crashing. The biggest thing I took away from this project is that AI can be a really helpful tool for writing code, but you still need to understand what the code is doing well enough to catch mistakes and make it actually work the way it is supposed to.

My calculator is a Freelancer Earnings Calculator. Basically, it is for anyone who does freelance work
like graphic design, coding, writing, tutoring, or really any kind of side job where you get paid per
project. A lot of people who freelance do not really know how much money they are actually making
each month, especially after taxes. So instead of guessing, you just type in how much you charge per
hour, how many hours each project takes, how many projects you do in a month, and your tax rate. The
calculator then tells you your gross income (what you make before taxes), how much you will owe in
taxes, your actual take-home pay, and even what that adds up to over a full year. I thought this was a
useful idea because a lot of college students do freelance work on the side and have no idea what they
are really earning after the government takes its cut. This calculator makes it easy to figure that out
without doing the math yourself

 

This project uses AI prompting to create an HTML webpage. By using this process, I was able to make an investment calculator where a user can put in a starting amount, annual growth rate, an optional monthly contribution, and current interest rates t see the annual growth of the investment as well as using a chart that compares the nominal value to the inflation-adjusted value.

For MIS 2402 at Temple University, I built a Calorie Burn Estimator, an interactive fitness web tool with the goal of helping users calculate how many calories they burn during a workout based on their personal stats and exercise details. Using primarily HTML, JavaScript, and jQuery, I implemented MET based calorie calculations, form validation, and a dynamic results display showing total calories burned, fat burned, and burn rate. The project is live at https://misdemo.temple.edu/tus55084j/project2/. Through this project, I learned how to apply real world fitness formulas in code, build responsive and visually polished UIs, and use jQuery to manage DOM interactions and user feedback effectively.

At the end of the semester I worked with AI tools to combine what I learned in Web Application Development and the structure of javascript to use AI tools to build an application. The application I built was a specialized calculator specifically to track subscription metrics and calculate spending across different intervals to allow users to see their total spending across subscription platforms. I used the debugging tools that I learned in MIS 2402 to not just let the AI create a solution for me but to also make changes and develop the application in collaboration with the AI agent as a resource rather than letting it do all of the work and not understanding what it did. I used skills like prompt engineering and the coding we practiced in class to successfully finish this project.

Stock P/L Calculator

For the course web application my task for a project sponsored by my professor Laurel Miller was to create a special purpose calculator. My special purpose calculator is a P/L (profit/loss) day calculator for the stock market. What you do is enter the ticker of your desired stock and then the current price, previous closing price, and the number of shares you have or wish to invest in. Why would anyone want to use it?, I’m a trading analyst, so I myself and anyone who is involved in the market would want to use this to analyze the performance of a stock if they wish to acquire it, for example, when doing market analysis on future stocks you wish to add to your portfolio by plugging in the calculator you get to see how it performed as if you were in a position that you already had it. This is very useful for market analysis and deciding if you want to buy it or not and also seeing how much you would have made or lost if you had it. Also if you had a stock at 10 shares and you wish to increase it you can plug in how much you would have
made that day with 15 or 20 shares to try and maximize ultimate portfolio gain.
