Answer:

-1.504

Explanation:

the key here is to see that there are providing two types of interest rates, for Fund A we have an anually compunded, and for Fund B we have simple inerest, so let´s first calculate the accumulated value after 10 years:

[tex]Fund A=50.000*(1+0.025)^{10}[/tex]

[tex]Fund A=64.004,23[/tex]

and by the other side for Fund B:

[tex]Fund B=50.000*(1+0.025(10))[/tex]

[tex]Fund B=62.500[/tex]

so, as it is requested the answer will be 62.500-64.004,23 it equals to -1.504,23 rounded -1.504
