Problem #1:
Imagine on this project you have only two resources who have the exact same skills and can do any of the tasks and when assigned to a task their time is 100% dedicated to the task.

Activity	Predecessor	Duration	Resource
Activity	Predecessor	Duration	Resource
A	-	2	2
B	A	2	2
C	A	3	1
D	B, C	4	2
E	D	3	1
F	A	1	2
G	E,F	5	2

Use the tab "Problem 1 Leveling" to provide two schedules:
(1) Develop the schedule for the project and highlight any period where there are resources overallocation issues.
(2) If there are periods that you have overallocated resources, then solve the overallocation issue and present a plan that is feasible (but given this simple project, present a feasible plan that results in the shortest time possible to complete the project).

Problem #2:
The tab "Problem #2 Crashing" - has the information for the project. Answer questions "A" to "F" by completing the tables (make sure to scroll down to find parts: D, E and F. Assume an indirect cost of $250/day and complete the tables provided.

Part B:

YOU MUST INCLUDE ALL POSSIBLE PATHS IN THE TABLE to the left.

Under the column with "path" heading, list the sequence of activities that makes each of the paths (For example KLMN and KPQR, etc). There may be more rows than needed.

Highlight which path(s) is(are) critical (change font size, or font color, or fill the cells with highlight). We must clearly be able to see that you have identified the critical path(s). The same is true for all following steps.

Part C: replace the "?" with the Total cost of the project. Assume an indirect cost of $250/day

Part D:
YOU MUST INCLUDE ALL POSSIBLE PATHS IN THE TABLE.
1st Crash - Reduce the project completion time by one day.
2nd Crash - Reduce the project completion time by one day.

The table to the left should show what you have crashed in each step and the costs. Update path durations as you crash. (watch the video on "Advance Crashing" found under the "Extra Videos" in Canvas, Module 5 - Or watch the live session recording to complete the table correctly.

Part E:
YOU MUST INCLUDE ALL POSSIBLE PATHS IN THE TABLE.
3rd Crash - Reduce the project completion time by one more day.
4th Crash - Reduce the project completion time by one more day.

Part F:
What is the shortest time to complete this project, how did you get to this timing? (Show your work clearly by filling the table to the left.) There maybe more columns than you need in the table provided.
