An Aircraft Company is preparing a contract proposal to submit to the defense department for a new military aircraft, the X-300J jet fighter. Part of the proposal is a development and production schedule for completion of the first aircraft. The project consists of three primary categories: engine design and development, development and production of the airframe (e.g., the aircraft body), and design and development of the aircraft avionics (e.g., the electronic systems, equipment, and other devices used to operate and control the aircraft). Following is a list of the project activities, with time estimates (in months) as shown in figure: Develop the project network and determine the critical path, the expected project duration, and the variance. What is the probability that the project will be completed within 8 years?
Text: We can develop the CSR activities for Nestle company of planting trees and cleaning the lakes. This can be done by partnering with NGOs who are already working in these areas. The company can target several trees to be planted, for example, 100,000 in a quarter and take care of them till growth. To clean the lake, it can take the help of the National scientist of environmental science and fund the project to clean some of the lakes with the target number of again 50. A long-term solution must be used by them in cleaning the lakes, like stopping the sewage inflow and creating a small recycling plant before throwing water into the water bodies. The government, municipality, NGO, and environmental scientists are the main stakeholders involved. Here, the competition must not be created, but collaboration was be done between the competitors to help the society. The competitors will be other brands like Unilever and P&G. Progress indicators can be used as the number of trees…

Prepare and upload a 1-page cost model for this project using spreadsheet software. Use the following work breakdown structure (WBS), and document your assumptions in preparing the cost model. Assume a labor rate of $100 per hour for the project manager and $60 per hour for other project team members. Assume that none of the work is outsourced, labor costs for users are not included, and there are no additional hardware costs. The total estimate should be $200,000.
