Answer #1

Option $298 is correct

Earnings per hour = $7

Overtime pay = 3 times his normal wage if worked for 40 hours

In the current scenario, he worked for 30 hours hence overtime pay is not applicable

Hours Worked = 30

Wage Earnings = 30 hours * $7 per hour = $210

Commission on all cookies sold = $1100 * 8% = $88

David's Earnings of Week = Wage Earnings + Commission on all cookies sold

= $210 + $88

= $298

Therefore, David's earnings of week is $298
