A Quistion Now How Much Money

Hi, dear you!

It is not a question now how much money I will leave over, but whether I have enough to pay the bill.

In that sentence above, is it either subject clause or object clause and appositive clause for "a question" "how much money I will leave over"?

Hi, Clive! Thank you.

I don't want to ask the same question in the sentence you show, I could see it's a object clause. Is it the previous one definitely wrong yet?
