Write a program that asks the user to enter an item’s wholesale cost and its markup percentage. It should then display the item’s retail price. For example: • If an item’s wholesale cost is 5.00 and its markup percentage is 100 percent, then the item’s retail price is 10.00. • If an item’s wholesale cost is 5.00 and its markup percentage is 50 percent, then the item’s retail price is 7.50. The program should have a method named calculateRetail that receives the wholesale cost and the markup percentage as arguments, and returns the retail price of the item. Class name: RetailPriceCalculator

Chapter 5. PC #2. Retail Price Calculator (page 312)
Write a program that asks the user to enter an item’s wholesale cost and its markup percentage. It should then display the item’s retail price. For example:
• If an item’s wholesale cost is 5.00 and its markup percentage is 100 percent, then the item’s retail price is 10.00.
• If an item’s wholesale cost is 5.00 and its markup percentage is 50 percent, then the item’s retail price is 7.50.
The program should have a method named calculateRetail that receives the wholesale cost and the markup percentage as arguments, and returns the retail price of the item.
Class name: RetailPriceCalculator
 
Here is a working code: please modify this code so it works in Hypergrade when I submit it so it passes all the test casses in Hypergrade. It has to pass all the test casses in Hypergrade and I do not need thanks for playing or goodbye in  the program. Below is the working code:
 

import java.util.Scanner;

public class RetailPriceCalculator {
    public static double calculateRetail(double wholesale, double percentage) {
        double retailPrice = wholesale + wholesale * (percentage / 100);
        return retailPrice;
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
        double wholesale = 0;
        double percentage = 0;
        // To check if it is the first or second input error
        int n = 0;
        boolean wholeSale = true;
        boolean percent = true;
        boolean condition = true;

        while (condition) {
            while (wholeSale) {
                if (n == 0) {
                    System.out.println("Please enter the wholesale cost or -1 to exit: ");
                } else {
                    System.out.println("Please enter the wholesale cost again or -1 to exit: ");
                    n = 0;
                }
                wholesale = sc.nextDouble();

                if (wholesale == -1) {
                    condition = false; // Exit the loop
                    break;
                } else if (wholesale < 0) {
                    System.out.println("Wholesale cost cannot be a negative value.");
                    n = 1; // Set the flag to indicate a second input error
                    continue; // Continue to prompt for input
                }
                wholeSale = false; // Valid input received, exit the inner loop
            }
            if (condition == false) {
                break; // Exit the outer loop
            }

            while (percent) {
                if (n == 0) {
                    System.out.println("Please enter the markup percentage or -1 to exit: ");
                } else {
                    System.out.println("Please enter the markup again or -1 to exit: ");
                    n = 0;
                }

                percentage = sc.nextDouble();

                if (percentage == -1) {
                    condition = false; // Exit the loop
                    break;
                } else if (percentage < -100) {
                    System.out.println("Markup cannot be less than -100%.");
                    n = 1; // Set the flag to indicate a second input error
                    continue; // Continue to prompt for input
                }
                percent = false; // Valid input received, exit the inner loop
            }
            if (condition == false) {
                break; // Exit the outer loop
            }
            wholeSale = true; // Reset the flag for the next input
            percent = true; // Reset the flag for the next input
            double retailPrice = calculateRetail(wholesale, percentage);
            System.out.printf("The retail price is: %.2f\n", retailPrice);
        }
    }
}
