Faleye Consulting is deciding which of two computer systems to purchase. It can purchase state$-$of$-$the$-$art equipment $($System A$)$ for an after$-$tax cost of $$21,000,$ which will generate after$-$tax cash flows of $$8,000$ at the end of each of the next $6$ years. Alternatively, the company can purchase equipment with an after$-$tax cost of $$12,000$ that can be used for $3$ years and will generate after$-$tax cash flows of $$8,000$ at the end of each year $($System B$).$ If the company$$s WACC is $5\%$ and both $$projects$$ can be repeated indefinitely, which system should be chosen, and what is its EAA? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to the nearest cent.
