If activity B takes an additional 3 weeks, what is the impact on the project?
Refer to Problem 2 of the Practice Problems download.
There is no impact on the project duration. Activity B has 6 weeks of slack time.
The entire project will be delayed 3 weeks (28 instead of 25 weeks).
The entire project will be delayed, but it will be less than 3 weeks as Activity B has some slack.
The answer cannot be determined.
If activity E takes an additional 1 weeks, what is the impact on the project?
Refer to Problem 2 of the Practice Problems download.
There is no impact on the project duration. Activity E has slack.
The entire project will take 1 additional week (26 instead of 25 weeks).
Activity E is on the critical path, so a delay will NOT cause the entire project to be delayed.
The answer cannot be determined.
