Which of the following is NOT true about a master schedule?

Group of answer choices

If the project is chosen, a master schedule is created.

It has major events and dates such as starting date, important events, and the completion date.

The master schedule is rarely part of a contract.

Changes to the schedule must be approved using a documented change process with approval by the project sponsor and client.

To execute the schedule, the major activities are broken down into smaller activities and resources are assigned to those activities.

The project work breakdown structure (WBS):

Group of answer choices

developed around the functions of the project facilitates the understanding of the amount of work required for each stage of the project.

represents a breakdown of the project into components that encompasses a part of the scope of the project.

size is directly related to the duration of each of the activities of the project.

represents increasing amounts of detail at its highest level while the lower levels represent broad categories.

is a hierarchical listing and grouping of the project activities required to produce the deliverables of the project.

Which of the following is true about a work breakdown structure (WBS)?

Group of answer choices

Developing a WBS begins by defining and developing lists of all activities needed to accomplish the work of the project.

The first draft of the WBS includes activities at the low-level.

The first draft of the WBS typically includes the minor activities required to accomplish the deliverables identified in the project scope of work.

The WBS is decomposed to the level that the client needs to control the project.

Typically, smaller and simpler projects require more detailed WBS.
