He will convert the gas station into a drive-through Christmas wrapping station. Customers will drive in, drop off their gifts, return the next day, and pick up their wrapped gifts. He needs $338,500 to rent the gas station, purchase wrapping paper, hire workers, and advertise. If he borrows this amount at  6 and 1/2%  interest for those two months, what size lump sum payment will he have to make to pay off the loan? (Round your answer to the nearest cent.)
