Article 220

Receptacles installed, in other than dwellings, must be calculated at 180.va per receptacle on the same yoke as provided in 220.14(I) and permitted to apply the demand in 220.44. [See 220.14(I) and exception for four or more receptacles used for a specific equipment.]

EXAMPLE: 180va. X 125 = 22,500va. The first 10kw@100% remained @50%.

Article 220

EXAMPLE: 8,000 watt range is the demand load in column C of table 220.55

Therefore, 8,000 watts x .2 [increased 20%] = 1600watts added to 8,000 watts.

ECCODESA Leader in Education

You have answered the question correctly.

Article 110/310

In the question there is no mention of the temperature ratings of the equipment, such as at the breaker, therefore, looking at 110.14(C) we must use the 60 L column in table 310.15(B)(16).

Also there is no mention if the load is a continuous load, therefore, it would be considered as non-continuous and calculated @ 100%.
