The problem is about finding critical paths and crashing activities based on the crash cost slope and crashing is done upto the optimum value of total project cost is reached future crashing is not recommended since total project cost increases.

4. Given the data and information that follow, compute the total direct cost for each project duration. If the indirect costs for each project duration are $90 (15 time units), $70 (14), $50 (13), $40 (12), and $30 (11), compute the total project cost for each duration. What is the optimum cost-time schedule for the project? What is this cost? Act. Crash Cost (Slope) Maximum Crash Time Normal Time Normal Cost WNUNUNAW OWLOI- 100 60 200 200 $730 Initial project...

Assume that Indirect project costs are $75,000 per week Crash
the network (one week at a time) until you reach the optimum
cost-time point. Document your crashes clearly. d. What is the
project length at the optimum point?

Chapter 9 Reducing Project Durarion 327 7. Use the information contained below to compress one time unit per move using the least cost method. Assume the total indirect cost for the project is $2.000 and there is a savings of $100 per time unit reduced. Calculate the total direct, indirect, an graph. What is the optimum cost-time schedule for the project? Note: The correct normal project duration and total direct cost are provi ded. Normal Cost 200 1000 800 1000...
Use the information contained
below to compress one time unit per move using the least cost
method. Reduce the schedule until you reach the crash point of the
network. For each move identify what activity(ies) was crashed and
the adjusted total cost. (i.e., Calculate the minimum direct cost
when project is finished in 13 days, 12 days, 11 days, as well as
10 days.)
Note: Choose B instead of C
and E (equal costs) because it is usually smarter to...
