Q1: Create the Gantt chart for Jenny based on Table 4. The origin of the time axis should be labeled as 3/1/2020

Q2: To ensure everything is correct, you review Jenny's schedule for any dates in Table 4 that appear to be infeasible. Since Jenny already announced the finish date of the project based on her schedule, you would try not to change this finish date.

That is, if you don't see any issue with Jenny's schedule after your review, there is no need to change anything. Otherwise, you will need to reschedule the project. In this case, you will make the finish date of the project as close to Jenny's as possible.

So, what is the finish date of the project after your review?
