With reference to Table above,

Assuming that the cost of each activity is linearly distributed over its duration, create two budgets as follows:

  1. The first budget should assume an early-start schedule
  2. The second budget should assume a late-start schedule
  3. Explain why the two budgets are different

the 2 budgets should look like the example table
