The Wildcat Oil Company is trying to decide whether to lease or buy a new computer-assisted drilling system for its oil exploration business. Management has decided that it must use the system to stay competitive; it will provide $2.4 million in annual pretax cost savings. The system costs $9.1 million and will be depreciated straight-line to zero over five years. Wildcat's tax rate is 34 percent, and the firm can borrow at 8 percent. Lambert's policy is to require its lessees to make payments at the start of the year.

Suppose it is estimated that the equipment will have an aftertax residual value of $900,000 at the end of the lease. What is the maximum lease payment acceptable to Wildcat? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your final answer to 2 decimal places. (e.g., 32.16))
