Padre works for a trade magazine that publishes lists of power-sizing exponents (PSE) that reflect economies of scale for developing engineering estimates of various types of equipment. Padre has been unable to find any published data on the VMIC machine and wants to list its PSE value in his next issue Cost of VMIC-100 today $250,000 Cost of VMIC-505 years ago $95,000 VMIC equipment index today-350 VMIC equipment index 5 years ago 235 Given the following data, calculate the PSE...
6) A trade magazine publishes lists of power-sizing exponents that reflect economies of scale for developing engineering estimates of various types of equipment. There are two pieces of similar machinery, the StottViking 100 and the StottViking 50. The 100 model produces twice the ouput (volume) as the 50 model. The cost of the 50 model was $95,000 five years ago, and the cost of the 100 model is $250,000 today. . There is a cost index documenting price changes of...
