Thanks! One more issue

Russderp (6)
Alright! The only issue I am having with the program now is that it isn't working as it should. 1 through 3 registrants should be 150 per. 4 through 9 should be 100 per and 10 and up should be 90 per. It is charging 150 for every ticket no matter what.

companyCounter is not being used?

Have you tried stepping through it with a debugger, to find out exactly what the values of the variables are at each step in the execution of the program?

Q: What do we know about numOfRegistrants after line 25 (i.e. when the loop is over)?
A: That numOfRegistrants >= 0 is false.

Q: Which branch of the if else .. is selected, when numOfRegistrants < 0?
A: Is that really the way the program should decide?
