You are planning a dinner party for yourself and five guests. You have decided on the following menu:
· Onion soup with French bread
· Roast chicken with boiled mixed vegetables
· Pie with hot chocolate sauce
· Two bottles of a good red wine
Based on your past experience, you know the required time for various tasks are:
· Cooking the onion soup: 30 minutes
· Warming the bread in the oven: 10 minutes
· Roasting the chicken in the oven: 45 minutes
· Boiling the vegetables: 25 minutes
· Warming the pie in the oven: 15 minutes
· Cooking the chocolate sauce: 40 minutes
· Serving and eating the soup: 20 minutes
· Serving and eating the chicken: 25 minutes
· Serving and eating the apple pie: 15 minutes
· Opening wines: 5 minutes
· Letting wines breathe: 30 minutes
Your plan is to go out together and catch a movie after the dinner party, so you want to finish preparing and eating your dinner as soon as possible. However, you have in your kitchen only one pot and a small oven that can hold only one item at a time.
Generate a WBS and a Gantt chart for the above dinner planning project using whatever program you prefer. You should Submit WBS, Gantt chart and responses to the following questions:
· What is the shortest time to cook, serve and eat the meal, given the constraints?
· Which path is the critical path?
· Suppose you want to spend the least amount of money to reduce the total meal time, which item would you purchase? What is the reduced total meal time if you would make the purchase?
· A pot
· A bigger oven
· Both a pot and a bigger oven
· Discuss the impact and tradeoff of purchasing more items on the reduction of total meal time.
