Swifty Inc., manufactures ice tea and would like to increase its market share in the North. In order to do so$,$ Swifty has decided to locate a new factory in the Cedar Rapid area. Swifty will either buy or lease a site depending upon which is more advantageous. The site location committee has narrowed down the available sites to the following three buildings:

Building A: Purchase for a cash price of $$1,525,000,$ useful life $27$ years.

Building B: Lease for $27$ years with annual lease payments of $$123,000$ being made at the beginning of the year.

Building C: Purchase for $$1,970,000$ cash. This building is larger than needed; however, the excess space can be sublet for $27$ years at a net annual rental of $$19,700.$ Rental payments will be received at the end of each year. Swifty Inc. has no aversion to being a landlord.
