Question: For the following project network, it is required to know the crashing duration that allows the project to operate with minimum total cost (crash point).

For the following project network, it is required to know the crashing duration that allows the project to operate with minimum total cost (crash point). Use the information contained below to compress one time unit per move using the least cost method. Reduce the schedule until you reach the crash point of the network. For each move identify what activity(s) was crashed, the adjusted direct cost, the adjusted indirect cost and the adjusted total cost, and explain your choice if you have to choose between activities that cost the same. It is estimated that the indirect cost for the normal project time is 1500$, which decrease by 70 $ each time the project duration is crashed one day

For the following project network, it is required
