Hey !
I am going to explain what I did to get the answer...
I multiplied $29,160 by 30 = $874,800
Then I multiplied $84,460 by 30 = $2,533,800
Then I subtracted the results = a difference of $1,659,000
So the answer to your question is, $1,659,000 is the difference.
I hope I was able to help you out :D <span />
