A t-shirt company charges a flat $50 set-up fee plus $4 per shirt and requires 14 days processing time. For a rush job, the company charges an additional $50 rush set-up fee, plus a surcharge of $1 per shirt per day (in addition to the original amount) for each day less than the standard 14-day processing time. (For instance, 13 days notice would be $5 per shirt, 12 days would be $6 per shirt, etc.)

If a customer orders 50 shirts 5 days prior to his desired pickup date, by what percent is his charge greater than it would have been had he provided at least 14 days’ notice?

A. 180%
B. 200%
C. 210%
D. 280%
E. 300%
