Question: Task ID Predecessors Normal Time Maximum Crash Time Normal Cost Crash Cost (Slope) 1 - 5 1 50 20 2 - 3 2 60 60
| Task ID | Predecessors | Normal Time | Maximum Crash Time | Normal Cost | Crash Cost (Slope) |
| 1 | - | 5 | 1 | 50 | 20 |
| 2 | - | 3 | 2 | 60 | 60 |
| 3 | 1 | 4 | 0 | 70 | 0 |
| 4 | 1 | 2 | 1 | 50 | 10 |
| 5 | 2 | 5 | 3 | 100 | 60 |
| 6 | 3 | 2 | 1 | 90 | 100 |
| 7 | 4 | 5 | 1 | 50 | 30 |
| 8 | 5 | 2 | 0 | 60 | 40 |
| 9 | 6,7,8 | 3 | 1 | 200 | 200 |
Consider the project above. If the indirect costs of the project are: $90 at 15 days, $75 at 14 days, $50 at 13 days, $40 at 12 days, and $30 at 11 days.
Please help crash this project in a manner that minimizes the sum of the total direct and indirect costs.
After the first iteration of crashing, what is/are the critical path(s)?
