Calculating Maximum Consumption Over a Semester

A student is planning their budget for a 16-week semester. They have a total of 2,688 hours available during this period to allocate between studying (which is considered free time in this model) and working at a part-time job that pays $15 per hour. Assuming the student has no other source of income, what is the maximum total consumption they can achieve over the entire 16-week semester? Show your calculation.
