You are in the planning phase of a project. You initially had thought that a task was going to take 8 hours of work time to complete but you now believe it will take 12 hours of work time. Even though there is more work involved in the task you still need it done in one day (duration). Assuming that you are using a standard calendar for the project (8 hour work day), what will the units for the resource in # 3(above) show after you have changed the work from 8 to 12 hours? Select the best answer.
Question 8 options:
It will remain at 100% because there are only 8 hours in a work day
It will increase to 200% because the 4 extra hours are 100% more than 8 hours
It will increase to 150% because the resource will need to work 50% more hours to complete the task
None of the above
