A contractor must choose between buying or renting a crane for the duration of a 5 year construction project. The contractor uses an MARR of 8%. At the end of the project, the crane can be sold for 21% of its initial cost. The cost to operate and maintain the crane is $210,000 per year. Renting the crane costs $330,000 per year including all operating and maintenance costs. Determine the maximum amount the contractor should pay to purchase the crane (i.e. the breakeven initial cost of the crane). Express your answer in $ to the nearest $1,000
