You are evaluating two different milling machines to replace your current aging machine. Machine A costs $$236,244,$ has a three$-$year life, and has pretax operating costs of $$67,855$ per year. Machine B costs $$417,560,$ has a five$-$year life, and has pretax operating costs of $$32,660$ per year. For both milling machines, use straight$-$line depreciation to zero over the project$$s life and assume a salvage value of $$35,626.$ Your tax rate is $34\%$ and your discount rate is $10\%.$

What is the EAC for Machine A$?$
