To find the total income over the next 20 years, we need to integrate the given rate of flow function from 0 to 20.

∫(0 to 20) 11e^(0.04t) dt = (11/0.04)(e^(0.04*20) - e^(0.04*0)) = 3688.7

Therefore, the total income over the next 20 years is $3,688,700 (rounded to the nearest thousand), which corresponds to option C.
