1. Un tamal cuesta 15 pesos. Si una tamalería aplicara la regla de ajuste por capacidad con un exponente igual a
10% 0.6, ¿de qué porcentaje sería el descuento?
2. En una tienda departamental, ofrecen una oferta de llevarse tres productos al precio de dos. ¿Cuánto vale el
10% exponente de ajuste por capacidad?
3. A small expansion to an existing chemical facility is being investigated, and a preliminary PFD of the process is
80% shown:

The expansion involves the installation of a new distillation column with a reboiler, condenser, pumps, and
other associated equipment. A list of the equipment, sizes, materials of construction, and operating pressures
is given:

Equipment No. Capacity/Size Material of Construction* Operating Pressure (barg†)

E-101 Area = 170 m2 Tube—CS Tube = 5.0

Overhead Shell and tube Shell—CS Shell = 5.0
condenser (floating head)

E-102 Area = 205 m2 Tube—SS Tube = 18.0

Reboiler Shell and tube Shell—CS Shell = 6.0
(floating head)

E-103 Area = 10 m2 All CS construction Inner = 5.0

Product cooler (double pipe) Outer = 5.0

P-101A/B Power = 5 kW CS Discharge = 5.0

Reflux pumps Centrifugal

T-101 Diameter = 2.1 m Vessel—CS Column = 5.0

Aromatics column Height = 23 m
32 sieve trays Trays—SS

V-101 Diameter = 1.8 m Vessel—CS Vessel = 5.0

Reflux drum Length = 6 m Horizontal

*CS = Carbon steel; SS = Stainless steel †barg = bar gauge, thus 0.0 barg = 1.0 bar

Calculate the total installed cost in 2018 (CEPCI = 600).
