Consider the following elements needed to produce a purchase order (see figure below):
$\begin{array} { l l } \text { Purchase order number } & \text { Product number } \\\text { Purchase order date } & \text { Product description } \\\text { Vendor code } & \text { Quantity purchased } \\\text { Vendor name } & \text { Unit cost } \\\text { Vendor address } & \\\text { Purchase Agent Name } & \text { Total ordered } \\& \text { Total due }\end{array}$
Using the SYSTEM OUTPUT approach, determine the tables needed and put them in third normal form. Be sure to identify primary, foreign, and/or composite (concatenated) keys as necessary. Primary keys and composite keys should be underlined, while foreign keys should be identified with an asterisk. LIST ALL TABLES FOR FIRST, SECOND and THIRD normal forms.
