Week 9 Assignment Crashing a Project

Complete the worksheets below to calculate the total costs for each duration of the project. In each worksheet:

Fill in the values in all boxes, including the letter x where appropriate

Respond everywhere you see an underscore (the cost questions and the question at the end)

Highlight the box(es) for the activities that you crashed

Add emphasis to arrows to show the critical path(s) (see example and note in the first worksheet below).

I need help, learning how to figure out my arrows and how to compute the total direct costs and total project costs. Also, how to figure out my critical path.

Thank you
