1. A network has been developed with resources from six different departments. One of the six departments has just informed you that they can increase the number of employees from 5 to 8. This will result in:

A. A shortening of a critical path.
B. A shortening of the non-critical paths.
C. A decrease in the total cost of the project.
D. An increase in the total cost of the project.
E. A through D is all possible based upon where and how the resources are used.

2. Three-point estimates include:

A. Mean, mode, and median
B. Most likely, optimistic, and pessimistic
C. Alpha, beta, and in-line
D. Parametric, bottom-up, and top-down
E. Design, engineering, and testing

3. Assume that you have a network where an activity on the critical path can be crashed by two weeks. If the activity is actually crashed by two weeks, then:

A. The project's schedule will be increased by 2 weeks.
B. The available slack on the non-critical paths will increase.
C. A new critical path may appear after the crash.
D. All of the above.
E. A and B only.

4. Inputs to the Define Activities process are:

A. Work breakdown structure, project schedule, and network diagram.

B. Project schedule, progress reports, and change requests.
C. Project network diagram, constraints, and assumptions.
D. Scope baseline, enterprise environmental factors, and organizational process assets.

5. Output from the Estimate Activity Resources process includes:

A. Job descriptions of resources required for the project.
B. Salary schedules for various project human resources.
C. Identification of the types and quantities of resources required for each activity.
D. Analogous estimating of resource requirements.

6. Program evaluation and review technique (PERT)

A. The weighted average of the triangular distribution duration estimates to calculate the activity early finish date.
B. The weighted average of three point duration estimates to calculate the expected activity
C. Dummy activities to represent logic ties.
D. Free float instead of total float in the schedule calculations.

7. Analogous duration estimating is:

A. The same as bottom-up estimating.
B. Frequently used to estimate project duration when there is a limited amount of detailed information about the project.
C. Similar to multiple duration estimating.
D. Generally more accurate than other duration estimating methods when expert judgment is

8. The precedence diagramming method (PDM):

A. Uses boxes or rectangles to represent activities. Therefore, it is also called activity-on-node (AON).
B. Uses a probabilistic approach to scheduling project activities.
C. Is a time-phased graphical representation of the arrow diagramming method (ADM) and shows durations of project activities as well as their dependencies.
D. Is more accurate than the critical path method for scheduling when there are uncertainties about the durations of project activities.

9. The method that involves calculating mulitple project durations with different sets of activity assumptions is called:

A. Critical Path Method (CPM)
B. Program Evaluation and Review Technique (PERT)
C. Total Project Management (TPM)
D. Simulation technique
E. None of the above

10. The Project Time Management processes include:

A. Activity Definition, Activity Sequencing, Activity Execution, Activity Duration Estimation, and Activity Control.
B. Define Activities, Sequence Activities, Estimate Activity Resources, Estimate Activity Durations, Develop Schedule, and Control Schedule.
C. Identify Activities, Develop Schedule, and Execute Activities, Control Activities, and Monitor Schedule Results.
D. Determine Activities, Estimate Activity Durations, Develop Schedule, Implement Activities, and Report Activity Results.
