Question # 2 (No restriction for the decimal

Question # 2 (No restriction for the decimal places calculation): Chris Jason, project manager of New Fabrication Company (NFC), wants you to prepare a project network and answer questions. His team determined the activities required to complete the project, the precedence relationship, and activity times as follows: ID Predecessor's Time (weeks) None 10 B None 4 None 6 D B, C E B, C 5 F A, B 7 G A, B 11 H F 8 1 D 7 J E 16 K 1 4 L G 5 M 1 5 N KM 3 O G, H, K 2 P L, O 5 Q D 14 R N, Q 4 S J, N, O 1 Answer following questions: a. Draw network for the above project, compute the early, late, and slack activity times; must use the given legend of the node. Must include start and finish node. b. What is the project completion time in weeks? c. What is the most slack an activity having and which activity/ies is/are having the most slack in the network? d. State critical path/s for the above project? e. Which activity/ies is/are merge activity/ies? f. Which activities are critical, state all? g. How many paths are available in the network? h. Draw the GANTT chart of the project. i. If there is delay in completion of activity 'Q' by 1 week, what will be the impact on project completion time and critical path/s? Briefly explain? (No link with part j and k') j. If activity 'L' took 2 weeks extra in completion, what will be the impact on project completion time and critical path/s? Briefly explain? (No link with part i and k') k. If activity 'I' completed 1 week earlier than the estimated time, what will be the impact on project completion time and critical path/s? Briefly explain? (No link with part i and j') Note: when drawing network must use the following Node Legend Legend ES ID EF SL LS DUR LF Note: Table given in "word doc" file. MUST use to answer all parts of this question except part 'a' and 'h' neatly draw what is asked in part 'a' and 'h
