This application has been created and provided with the environment using docker and docker compose. To be able to use this application, please ensure that you have installed Docker with version 2 (you need to be able to execute docker compose command).
Firstly you need to build docker image. To do that, please execute this command:
docker compose build --no-cacheIt will build the docker image. During build there all tests, phpstan and php-cs-fixer will be executed. When the build process will finish without any error, it means, that code works perfectly.
After that you can test the application using command mentioned below:
docker compose run php php index.php <term> <amount>Replace <term> with value 12 or 24 and <amount> with the value between 1000 and 20000. You should expect this kind of result in you console:
Calculated fee for term 12 and amount 1500 is: 70.This test is designed to evaluate your problem solving approach and your engineering ability. Design your solution in a way that shows your knowledge of OOP concepts, SOLID principles, design patterns, clean and extensible architecture.
Provide a test suite verifying your solution, use any testing framework you feel comfortable with. Use any libraries (or none) you feel add value to your solution. Treat the packaged project as a template; if you feel that your solution can be improved with modifications to it then please go ahead.
The requirement is to build a fee calculator that - given a monetary amount and a term (the contractual duration of the loan, expressed as a number of months) - will produce an appropriate fee for a loan, based on a fee structure and a set of rules described below. A general contract for this functionality is defined in the interface FeeCalculator.
Implement your solution such that it fulfils the requirements.
- The fee structure does not follow a formula.
- Values in between the breakpoints should be interpolated linearly between the lower bound and upper bound that they fall between.
- The number of breakpoints, their values, or storage might change.
- The term can be either 12 or 24 (number of months), you can also assume values will always be within this set.
- The fee should be rounded up such that fee + loan amount is an exact multiple of 5.
- The minimum amount for a loan is 1,000 PLN, and the maximum is 20,000 PLN.
- You can assume values will always be within this range but they may be any value up to 2 decimal places.
Example inputs/outputs:
| Loan amount | Term | Fee |
|---|---|---|
| 11,500 PLN | 24 months | 460 PLN |
| 19,250 PLN | 12 months | 385 PLN |
A database or any other external dependency is not required for this test.

// $fee = (float) 115.0The fee structure doesn't follow particular algorithm and it is possible that same fee will be applicable for different amounts.
