a. Factory V1, which uses 43 units of input to produce 38 units of output
b. Factory W15, which uses 28 units of input to produce 27 units of output
c. Factory X3A, which uses 57 units of input to produce 58 units of output
d. Factory Y3, which uses 120 units of input to produce 110 units of output
e. Factory ZZ3, which uses 260 units of input to produce 240 units of output - Answer-c.

Suppose we are using the CPM with three time estimates (PERT) to schedule a project.
What is the variance of the length of the critical path, if there is a 92.22% probability that
the project will be completed within the expected duration plus three time periods?
Select the nearest correct answer. (HINT: Use the Z formula to find the value)
a. 1.67
b. 2.34
c. 2.96
d. 3.19
e. 4.46 - Answer-e. 4.46
, z=Norm.s.inv(92.22)
standard dev=3(time estimates)/z
variance=standard deviation^2
As project manager, it is important to deal with the people issues as well as scheduling.
Which of the following project organizational structure would require your time and
attention to handle team members' frustration in dealing with two bosses?
a. Pure project structure
b. Matrix project structure
c. Functional project structure
d. Hierarchical project structure
e. Both A and B are acceptable project structures - Answer-b. Matrix project structure
A project has three sequences of activities (paths), two of which are critical. The critical
paths of this project can be characterized in the following way:
a. The slack times for each task in the entire project are zero.
b. The chain of activities (from start to finish) that has the largest sum of activity
durations.
c. The early start date and early finish date are always the same for each activity on the
critical path.
d. To reduce the project duration, you must reduce the slack time of a task on the
critical path.
e. None of the above are correct. - Answer-b. The chain of activities (from start to finish)
that has the largest sum of activity durations.
As Project Manager, it is important to deal with the people issues as well as scheduling.
which of the following would NOT require your time and attention?
a. In a functional project structure, possibly negotiating with the departments for the
people you need.
b. Intentional delaying of a project as the completion date draws near, by people on the
project as their means of resisting change.
c. In a functional structure, resistance of team members to working on tasks outside
their area of expertise.
d. In pure project structure, the team member's frustration in dealing with two bosses.
e. Motivating team members, especially in a functional structure. - Answer-d. In pure
project structure, the team member's frustration in dealing with two bosses.
A project has a critical path with a duration of 20 weeks and a standard deviation of 4
weeks. There is a 35% chance the project will be completed in X weeks or less. What is
X? Select the closest answer.
