Answer: $547200

Median salary of masters older is 68,100

Total after 36 years= 68,100*36 = $2,451,600

Median Salary of BSc holder is $52,900

Total median salary after 36 years is 52,900*36 = 1,904,400

The difference is $2,451,600-1,904,400 = 547,200

The person with Masters will earn $547,200 after 36 years
