    So here's my source code:

    Code:
    #include <iostream>
    using namespace std;
    
    struct Car_Sales
    {
    	char bstock[15];
    	int quantity;
    	int bsold,x;
    } cs[10];
    
    void main()
    {
    	for (int x=0; x<10; x++)
    	{
    		cout << "Cars in stock for brand: ";
    		cin >> cs[x].bstock;
    		cout << "Quantity on hand: ";
    		cin >> cs[x].quantity;
    		cout << endl;
    	}
    
    	char btemp[15];
    	do
    	{
    		int found = 0;
    		cout << "Which brand was sold? ";
    		cin >> btemp;
    
    
    		if (strcmp (btemp, "-1") == 0)
    			break;
    
    		for (int x=0; x<10; x++)
    			if (strcmp (btemp, cs[x].bstock) == 0)
    			{
    				found = 1;
    				cout << "How many cars in sale? ";
    				cin >> cs[x].bsold;
    				break;
    			}
    		
    		if (found == 0)
    			cout << "No brand was found in stock.\n";
    	} while (strcmp (btemp, "-1") != 0);
    
    	cout << "******************************************\n";
    	cout << "   * DAILY REPORT *\n";
    	cout << "******************************************\n";
    
    	float sperc;
    	for (int x=0; x<10; x++)
    	{	
    		sperc=(cs[x].bsold*100)/(cs[x].quantity*100);
    		cout << "Brand Code: \t\t\t\t" << cs[x].bstock << endl;
    		cout << "Inventory At Day Start: \t\t" << cs[x].quantity << endl;
    		cout << "Total Sales: \t\t\t\t" << cs[x].bsold << endl;
    		cout << "Inventory At Day End: \t\t\t" << cs[x].quantity-cs[x].bsold << endl;
    		cout << "Sales As Percentage Of Inventory: \t" << sperc << "%" << endl;
    		cout << endl;
    	}
    	system ("pause");
    }
    
    
    i have no idea how to solve this issue.

    can anyone provide me simpler source code?

    The code is not difficult to follow and it is hard to see how it could be simplified further. What part(s) are you struggling to understand?

    Also you forgot to state what the problem was, i.e. the issue you're trying to solve.
