You are evaluating two different milling machines to replace your current aging machine. Machine A costs $$229,988,$ has a three$-$year life, and has pretax operating costs of $$69,405$ per year. Machine B costs $$419,187,$ has a five$-$year life, and has pretax operating costs of $$30,870$ per year. For both milling machines, use straight$-$line depreciation to zero over the project$$s life and assume a salvage value of $$38,281.$ Your tax rate is $34\%$ and your discount rate is $10\%.$

What is the EAC for Machine A$?($Round answer to $2$ decimal places. Do not round intermediate calculations$)$
