To keep costs at a minimum and decrease the completion time by 1-1/2 days, Networks, Inc.should crash activity(ies):
Answer(s): A
The critical (longest) path is A-D-E, which has an expected time of 13 days (5.5 + 7.5). However, to decrease the project's completion time by 1.5 days, paths A-B-C-E (4.5 + 1.0 + 6.5 = 12 days) and A-B-D-E (4.5 + .5 + 7.5= 12.5 days) as well as A-D-E must also be shortened. Hence, A-D-E must be reduced by 1.5 days. A-B-C-E by .5 day, and A-B-D-E by 1.0 day. The only way to decrease A-D-E by 1.5 days is to crash activity AD (5.5 expected time - 4.0 crash time = 1.5 days). Crashing DE results in a 1.0-day saving (7.5-6.5) only. Crashing AB is the efficient way to reduce both A-B-C-E and A-B-D-E by the desired amount of time because it is part of both paths. The incremental cost of crashing AB is US $1,000 (US $4,000 crash cost - US $3,000 normal cost) to shorten the completion time by 1.0 day (4.5 - 3.5). The alternatives for decreasing both A-B-C-E and A-B-D-E are more costly.
When making a cost-time trade-off in CPM analysis, the first activity that should be crashed is the activity:
Answer(s): D
When making a cost-time trade-off, the first activity to be crashed (have its completion time accelerated) is one on the critical path. To select an activity on another path would not reduce the total time of completion. The initial activity chosen should be the one with the completion time that can be accelerated at the lowest possible cost per unit of time saved.
In PERT, slack is the:
Slack is the amount of time that commencement of an activity can be delayed without forcing a delay of the entire project.
The network below describes the interrelationships of several activities necessary to complete a project. The arrows represent the activities. The numbers between the arrows indicate the number of months to complete each activity.The shortest time to complete the project is:
Answer(s): C
The critical (longest) path through the network from node (A) to node (F) is path A-C-D-F. All other paths are shorter than path A-C-D-F, so the activities along those paths can be completed before the activities along path A-C-D-F. Thus, the shortest time to complete the project is 8 months (3 + 3 + 2).
A shortest-route algorithm is used in network models to:
Answer(s): B
Network models are used to solve managerial problems pertaining to project scheduling, information systems design, and transportation systems design. Networks consisting of nodes and arcs may be created to represent in graphic form problems related to transportation, assignment, and transshipment. The shortest-route, minimal spanning tree, and maximal flow problems are other applications of network models. A shortest-route algorithm minimizes total travel time from one site to each of the other sites in a transportation system.

really correct and good analyze!
excellent thanks a lot
will post once pass the cka exam
good content
q:32 answer has to be option c
nice questions
i really like the support team in this website. they are fast in communication and very helpful.
a good contemporary exam review
q23, its an array, isnt it? starts with [ and end with ]. its an array of objects, not object.
cool very helpfull
i just passed. this exam dumps is the same one from prepaway and examcollection. it has all the real test questions.
is this a valid prince2 practitioner dumps?
all are relatable questions
might help me to prepare for the exam
just paid and downlaod the 2 exams using the 50% sale discount. so far i was able to download the pdf and the test engine. all looks good.
i think it should be a,c. option d goes against the principle of building anything custom unless there are no work arounds available
very legible
is this exam accurate or helpful?
please upload dump, i have exam in 2 days
this is useful
question 232 answer should be perimeter not netowrk layer. wrong answer selected
hi team, could you please provide this dump ?
very helpful to clear the exam and understand the concept.
i think it is great that you are helping people when they need it. thanks.
cannot evaluate yet
a laptops wireless antenna is most likely located in the bezel of the lid
good examplae to learn basic
this is useful information
looks usefull
question 81 should be c.
question 18 : response isnt a ?
plaese add questions
is dumps still valid ?
