Question 765620
flat rate is $124 per month.
hourly rate is $4.00 per hour for 160 hours a month.
$4.00 * 160 = $640.00 per month.
flat rate is way better.
the rate for option a is $124.00
the rate for option b is $4.00 * x.
these options will break even when $4.00 * x = $124.00
this occurs when x = $124.00 / $4.00 = 31.
if the employee only parked 31 hours per month, the options would be the same.
option a would be $124.00
option b would be $4.00 * 31 = $124.00
