You are being hired for a new job but the employer is given you a choice of two methods of payment.

Method 1: a wage of $24 per hour for the first 140 hours

$26 per hour for more than 140 hours

Method 2: 5% commission on monthly sales up to $40 000

10% commission on sales greater than $40 000

You worked 167 hours last month and had total sales of $63 000. Identify which method would pay you the most and what your income would be.
