27)Duhok Inc. has decided to acquire a new machine that can either be purchased for $4,200,000 and depreciated at a 30% CCA rate or leased for a 5-year period for $800,000 per year (due at the beginning of each year). The firm can borrow at 8%, has a 40% marginal tax rate, and 12% WACC. The new machine has an expected useful life of 5 years and an expected salvage value of $1,000,000 at the end of the fifth year.
