10 cid 10 A An activity cannot begin until all preceding activities have been completed B Each activity must have a unique identification number C Conditional statements are allowed but looping statements are not allowed D An activity identification number must be larger that that of any preceding activities E Networks flow from left to right 16 activities must be completed immediately before a particular activity cid 10 cid 10 17 activities are to be completed immediately following a particular activity cid 10 cid 10 18 The forward pass in project network calculations determines the cid 10 cid 10 19 The backward pass in project network calculations determines the cid 10 cid 10 A Earliest time s activities can begin B Earliest time s activities can be finished C Duration of the project D Both A and B are correct E A B and C are all correct A Latest time s activities can begin B Earliest time s activities can be finished C Critical path D Both A and C are correct E A B

following actions cid 10 would the project manager take first cid 10 A Check to see which activities cost the least B Check to see which activities have the longest duration C Check to see which activities are on the critical path D Check to see which activities have the most slack E Check to see which activities have the highest risk 27 Typically an activity on a project network represents cid 10 cid 10 A A single work package B One or more tasks from a work package C Several work packages D A sub deliverable E A cost account 28 Project network logic errors include which of the following cid 10 cid 10 A Activities with less than 1 day duration B Sequences such as if test successful build prototype if failure redesign C A sequence such as B succeeds A C succeeds B A succeeds
