B A shortening of the noncritical path.
C A decrease in the total cost of the project.
D An increase in the cost of the project.
E A through D are possible based upon where the resources are deployed.
E

C Manpower shortages, high risk activities.
D High risk activities, non-critical paths.
E Manpower availability, contingency plans.

D
QUEST The critical path in a network is the path that:
A Has the greatest degree of risk.
B Will elongate the project if the activities on this path take longer than anticipated.

D All of the above.
E A and B only.
B
QUEST The major difference between PERT and CPM networks is:
A PERT requires three time estimates whereas CPM requires one time estimate.
B PERT is used for construction projects whereas CPM is used for R & D.
C PERT addresses only time whereas CPM also includes cost and resource availability.
D PERT requires computer solutions whereas CPM is a manual technique.
E PERT is measured in days whereas CPM uses weeks or months.
