Question 3: Which of the following statements is correct?
Question 4: Determine the critical path (this is the core part of test 3; take paper, pen, and some time and try).
In order to work on this task you need the network diagram. Here you can download it: Network Diagram of the "Desk Project"
The following table contains estimated effort and duration of each work package of the desk example: effort in working hours (wh), duration in hours (h).
How do we read this?
Let us take an example: For the work package "Prepare tools" we have
effort = 2 wh, duration = 8 h, meaning that we will shift the actual work of preparing the tools, that block of 2 working hours, within a time frame of 8 hours, when ever it fits best.
Then, the critical path is ...
- 1 - 2 - 4 - 5 - 6 - 7 - 13 - 14 - 15.
- 1 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 - 7 - 13 - 14 - 15.
- 1 - 2 - 4 - 8 - 9 - 12 - 13 - 14 - 15.
- 1 - 2 - 4 - 5 - 6 - 7 - 11 - 14 - 15.
Question 5: What is the duration of the critical path?
- 38 h
- 40 h
- 42 h
- 44 h
Question 6: What is the total effort of that project, in wh?
- 10 wh
- 14.5 wh
- 38 wh
- 40 wh
Question 7: What helps us to prioritize risks?
- Calculating the probability of each risk.
- Multiplying probability with impact of each risk.
- Calculating the impact of each risk.
- Neither one of the above.
