A company is contemplating leasing a diagnostic scanner (leasing is a common practice with expensive, high-tech equipment). The scanner costs $4,700,000 and would be depreciated straight-line to zero over three years. Because of radiation contamination, it will actually be completely valueless in three years. Assume that the tax rate is 23 percent. You can borrow at 8 percent before taxes. What would the lease payment have to be for both the lessor and the lessee to be indifferent about the lease? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
