Solution
We know that,

Simple Interest = (Principal * Number of years * Rate of Interest)

Here, rate of interest = 30240/(84000*3)

Therefore, rate of interest = .12 = 12%

Now, amount after compunding = Principal (1+r)^n = 84000*(1.12)^3

= 118013.952

Interest = 34013.952

Hence, option E is correct.
