One new Engineering team is put together for the development of a new product. This new product will be built through an assembly line. The production manager designs the assembly line. He has been advised that the assembly line must be ready in four weeks (20 working days) for a test run. The manager decided to use CPM (critical path method) and has broken down the projects into the following activities, determined their precedence relationships, and estimated normal times: Activity Immediate Predecessors Normal Time (days) Crash Time (days) Crashing Cost ($/ day) a. organize layout team none 5 5 - b. organize modification team none 3 3 - c. design personnel jobs a, b 2 1 500 d. set machinery in place none 3 1 2500 e. connect utilities d 3 2 1000 f. modify conveyor system c, e 4 3 1200 g. train personnel c 6 3 - h. finishing touches f, g 5 3 800 i. run test lot h 2 2 - Based on the information provided above, answer the following questions. 1. What is the project earliest completion time in days

An employer who is considering hiring eva has asked donna, eva’s former supervisor, for a report on eva. in truth, eva’s work for donna has been only average. however, eva is donna’s friend, and donna knows that eva probably will not get the job if she says anything negative about eva, and donna knows that eva desperately needs the job. further, donna knows that if the situation were reversed, she would not want eva to mention her deficiencies. nevertheless, it has been donna’s policy to reveal the deficiencies of employees when she has been asked for references by employers, and she knows that some of eva’s faults may be bothersome to this particular employer. finally, this employer has leveled with donna in the past when donna has asked for a report on people who have worked for him. should donna reveal deficiencies in eva’s past performance? (remember to use one of the three moral theories acceptable for this test to solve this dilemma. any discussion of any personal opinion, religious perspective, or theory other than the moral theories acceptable for this test will result in a score of "0" for this question.)
