Paul sells encyclopedias door-to-door. He earns $160 on every paycheck, regardless of how many sets he sells. In addition, he earns a commission as follows:

Commission Sales
10% $0.00 - $10,000.00
5% $10,000.01 --->

He does not earn "double commission." That is, if his sales are $12,000, he earns 10% on the first $10,000 and 5% on the remaining $2,000.

His largest paycheck of the year was $1,320. What were his sales for that pay period?

A. 13,200
B. 14,800
C. 16,400
D. 15,800
E. 19,600
