Question

Palayan requires that all activities and the precedent and subsequent relationships among them be identified A) A CASE diagram B) A Gantt chart C) APERT diagram D) A SDLC cycle 8) Refer to the diagram below, where the numbers next to the arrows refer to the number of days required for completion of the corresponding activity. What is the critical path? A) A-B-D-F B) A-C-E-F C) AB-D-E-F D) A-C-B-D-F E) A-C-B-D-E-F 9) Identify the statement below that best describes a Gantt chart. A) A network of arrows and nodes representing project activities B) A bar chart with project activities on the left-hand side and units of time across the top C) A pie chart with the size of estimated expenditures represented as slices. D) A scatterplot diagram with activities on the Y access and dots representing the potential expenditures of each activity 10) One disadvantage of a Gantt chart is the fact that A) it does not show the entire schedule for a project. B) it does not show project progress. C) it does not show relationships among project activities D) it does not permit an individual to quickly determine which activities are behind schedule. 11) A consideration of whether an organization's employees will use a new or revised system represents the aspect of a feasibility study A) economic feasibility B) operational feasibility C) scheduling feasibility D) technical feasibility

Answer 1

7. The correct answer is C

Since in PERT diagram precedent and subsequent relationships are to be identified for all activities.

8. To identify critical path, we first need to find no. Of days required to complete for all possible paths. So possible paths are:

A-B-D-F=1+3+2=6

A-C-E-F=3+1+3=7

A-C-B-D-F=3+3+3+2=11

A-B-D-E-F=1+3+2+3=9

A-C-B-D-E-F=3+3+3+2+3=14

Since the maximum time is on pathA-C-B-D-E-F i.e 14 days. The correct answer is E

9. The correct answer is B

Since gantt chart is a bar diagram illustrating project schedule named after its inventor Henry Gantt.

Gantt chart is a bar chart with project activities on the left hand side and units of time across the top.

10. The correct answer is D

Since gantt chart helps to plan the entire schedule and progress of the project by showing relationship among project activities.

11 The correct answer is B

During feasibility analysis, under operational feasibility, change and resistance from employees is being taken care of.
