    1. Estimating cost of equipment using scaling factors and cost index.


    The purchased cost of a 50-gal glass-lined, jacketed reactor (without drive) was $8350 in
    1981. Estimate the purchased cost of a similar 3OO-gal, glass-lined, jacketed reactor
    (without drive) in 1986. Use the annual average Marshall and Swift equipment-cost index
    (all industry) to update the purchase cost of the reactor.
    2. Estimation of fixed-capital investment by percentage of delivered equipment cost.
    Prepare a study estimate of the tied-capital investment for the process plant described in
    Example 1 if the delivered-equipment cost is $100,000.
