1. A big advantage of PERT over Gantt charts is that in the former case

  1. activities and events are clearly shown
  2. early start and late finish of an ac¬tivity are clearly marked
  3. activity times are clear
  4. critical path can be easily determined
  5. inter-relationship among activities is clearly shown.

Correct answer: (E)
inter-relationship among activities is clearly shown.

2. According to Rowan plan, if H = hourly rate, A = actual time and S = standard time, then wages will be

  1. HA
  2. HA + (S~A) HA

  5. HA + ^^-HA.

Correct answer: (B)
HA + (S~A) HA
