Helicopter Gear is planning to expand its product line, which requires investment of $$567,000$ in special$-$purpose machinery. The machinery has a useful life of six years and no salvage value. The estimated annual results of offering the new products are as follows:

Revenue $ $532,500$

Expenses $($including straight$-$line depreciation$)(505,200)$

Increase in net income $ $27,300$

All revenue from the new products and all expenses $($except depreciation$)$ will be received or paid in cash in the same period as recognized for accounting purposes.

Using a discount rate of $9\%,$ what is the net present value of this proposed investment?

Note: An annuity table shows that the present value of $$1$ received annually for six years, discounted at $9\%,$ is $4\mathrm{.}486.$ Round the final answer to nearest whole dollar.
