b. List the critical path activities and the expected project duration.
c. Determine the scheduling times and total slack for all activities.
d. In the contract, a bonus of $100,000 per day will be paid for each day the project is completed earlier than its expected duration. Evaluate the following alternatives to shorten the project duration and then make a recommendation:
1. Crash activity B by 4 days at a cost of $100,000.
2. Crash activity G by 1 day at a cost of $50,000.
