The center needs to remodel one ofthe rooms in time for the start of a new program. Delays in the project mean that the center mustrent other space at a nearby church at additional cost. Time and cost data for your project arecontained in below table. Your interest is in minimizing the cost of the project to the communitycenter.Using the normal times for each activity, what is the earliest date you can complete the project?Suppose the variable overhead costs are $50 per day for your project. Also, suppose that thecenter must pay $40 per day for a temporary room on day 15 or beyond. Find the minimum-costproject schedule using below format.The AON diagram for the community center project is below. Crash 4 times and find total cost.

- Problem Statement: Project Control and Monitoring You are working on a manufacturing project having a budget of PKR 3,600,000 and expected time of its completion is one year. There is an ideal condition that your budget and work are evenly spread across the duration of the project that is twelve month. At the end of forth month, the senior management has called a meeting and invited all the stakeholders to brief about the status of the project. You being the PM of this project is giving the presentation to all the attendees and informed that project is on schedule and PKR 1,800,000 have already been spent on the project.
