TRUE or FALSE

___________1. PERT was developed in the late 50’s by Navy specifically for
the Polaris Misile Project to handle certain activity times.

___________2. Variation in noncritical activities ordinarily has effect on the

project completion time because of the slack time associated with these
activities.

___________3. When determining the time estimates for activities in a

project, the project manager bases these estimates on the quantity of
resources (workers, equipment, etc) that will be assigned to the activity.

___________4. Crashing is the shortening of activity times which usually can

be achieve by deduction of resources.

necessary to determine the expected time required to complete the

project and determine the activity schedule.

___________5. All paths in the network must be traversed in order to

complete the project, so will look for the path that require the greatest
time.

___________6. The longest path is the critical path. Activities on the critical
path referred to as critical activities for the project.

___________7. CPM was developed originally by DuPoint and Remington

Rand primarily for industrial projects.

___________8. The original developers of CPM provided the project

managers with the option of adding resources to selected activities to
reduce project completion time.

___________9. Variation in activities can cause variation in the project

completion time

___________10. When we have the project network and the expected

activity times, we are ready to proceed with the Critical path calculations
