Rader Railway is determining whether to purchase a new rail setter, which has a base price of $$425,000$ and would cost another $$44,000$ to install. The setter will be depreciated according to the MACRS $3-$year class of assets, and it would be sold after three years for $$210,000.$ Using the setter requires a $$29,000$ increase in net working capital. Although it would have no effect on revenues, the setter should save the firm $$161,000$ per year in before$-$tax operating costs $($excluding depreciation$).$ Rader's marginal tax rate is $40$ percent, and its required rate of return is $12$ percent. Should the setter be purchased? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to the nearest cent. Use a minus sign to enter a negative value, if any.
