Explanation:
We must determine the future value of the money invested and then calculate the difference between both return rates. We can use the future value formula: FV = present value x (1 + return rate)ⁿ
3.5% ⇒ FV = $238,000 x (1 + 3.5%)³ = $238,000 x 1.035³ = $263,874.85
4% ⇒ FV = $238,000 x (1 + 4%)³ = $238,000 x 1.04³ = $267,717.63
difference = $267,717.63 - 263,874.85 = $3,842.78
