The cost index for this class of equipment six years ago was 187 and is now 194. The plant engineering staff was considering a 120-kW unit of the same general design to power a small isolated plant that would have cost $211,707. Based on the information above the plant engineering staff is considering a 100-kW unit of the same general design to power a small isolated plant. Assume we want to add a pre- compressor, which (when isolated and estimated separately) currently costs $13,000. Determine the total cost of the 100-kW unit.arrow_forward
