When slack of an activity is zero, it falls only on critical path.
CPM technique is useful to minimise the direct and indirect expenses.
Critical path of a net work represents the minimum time required for completion of project.
All of the above
The minimum time required for completion of project
The maximum time required for completion of project
Maximum cost required for completion of project
Minimum cost required for completion of project
The appraisal, in terms of time, of the value of work involving human effort
Machine setting time
Time taken by workers to do a job
Method of fixing time for workers
Prescribes the sequence of operations to be followed
Determines the programme for the operations
Is concerned with the starting of processes
Regulates the progress of job through various processes
Optimum utilization of men, machines and materials
Lowest possible cost and shortest possible time for project
Timely execution of project
To produce best results under given constraints

A project will always be behind schedule, if left uncorrected
Cost of project will always be more than the estimated cost, if no timely corrections are taken
A project can be subdivided into a set of predictable, independent activities
Activities are fixed and can't be changed
Keep all the handling to the minimum
Select only efficient handling equipment
Move the heaviest weight to the least distance
All of the above
Strict adherence to specification
Separation of planning and design part
Each individual maintains functional efficiency
All of the above
The events are represented graphically by circles or nodes at the beginning and the end of activity by arrows.
The tail end of the arrow represents the start of an activity.
The head of the arrow represents the end of an activity.
All of the above
Flow of material in the plant
Proper utilization of man power
Proper utilization of machines
Inspection of final product
CPA (Critical Path Analysis)
CPP (Critical Path Plotted)
CPS (Critical Path Scheduling)
All of the above
(Normal time) - (allowances)
(Normal time) + (allowances)
Representative time multiplied by rating factor
Normal time taken by an operation
Sales turn over
Lowest competitive price
Various elements of the cost
All of the above
Relations between factors must be linear (positive)
Relations between factors must be linear (negative)
Either (A) or (B)
Only one factor should change at a time, others remaining constant
Maximum slack
