4. Identify the critical path. 6.

Assume that the company wants to complete the project in 26

Paths:
1-2-3-5-6 (10+8+10+3) = 31 weeks *critical path
1-2-4-5-6 (10+7+10+3) = 30 week
5. What is the project's expected completion time and cost?
weeks. What crashing decisions do you recommend to meet the
desired completion time at the least possible cost?
If the company wants to complete the project in 26 weeks, the
crash decisions I’d recommend are 2-3, 2-4 and 3-5.

Initial Stage 7. How much will be the total project cost after the crashing
Paths: decisions?
1-2-3-5-6 (10+8+10+3) = 31 weeks *critical path Path:
1-2-4-5-6 (10+7+10+3) = 30 weeks 1-2-3-5-6 (10+6+7+3) = 26 weeks
Projected Time: 31 weeks Projected Time: 26 weeks
Activities Crashed: none Activities Crashed: 2-3, 2-4, 3-5
Project Cost: P400,000 Project Cost: P500,000

Second Stage
Paths:
1-2-3-5-6 (10+6+10+3) = 29 weeks
1-2-4-5-6 (10+7+10+3) = 30 weeks *critical path
Projected Time: 30 weeks
Activities Crashed: 2-3
Project Cost: P430,000
