[@The_Business_Doctor]

Thank you! I'm glad you liked it. I had my friend Hala do the voice over for a change.

Thank you so much for the brief explanation. I got one question: is it okay if me and my friend had different number of waves to solve this problem? some will solve in 4 waves, others in 6...etc. Do all the solutions have to be identical? knowing that end results are the same

[@The_Business_Doctor]

Glad you liked the video. No the solution doesn’t have to be identical. There are different ways to solve them but the end result is the same.

Can you explain why we crash activity D to two weeks? How would I know when to crash it into half because activity D max is 4 weeks so why not crash it into 4 weeks?

[@achisoosoo]

you can crash it 4 times in wave1 and you will still get the same answer: 2 critical paths (paths ADG & BEG)

[@The_Business_Doctor]

Yes, there is more than one way to solve it.

I thought the calculation of crash cost/week is crash duration - normal duration? from above is normal duration - crash duration

[@The_Business_Doctor]

If you take the absolute value it doesn’t matter which way you calculate it.
