Discuss AACE International AACE-PSP Exam Topic 2 Question 52

What day would Activity C complete if the duration of Activity B was reduced to zero?

A50

B20

C30

D40

Suggested Answer: A

If the duration of Activity B is reduced to zero, the completion of Activity C is determined solely by its own duration and predecessor relationships.

Without knowing the explicit network logic, it is inferred that reducing Activity B to zero does not affect Activity C's finish on Day 50, as its relationship with other activities remains intact.

Reference: PSP Study Guide, Section 2.2.4 -- Relationships and Calculations, highlights how relationships and durations impact completion dates.

I really can't remember how reducing durations impacts the schedule. I guess it could be any of these options, but I'm leaning towards 20.

I feel like I might have seen something similar where the dependencies played a big role. Is it possible that Activity C could still finish on day 40?

Caprice 4 months ago

I remember a practice question where reducing a task's duration changed the finish date significantly. Could it be 30 days?

Sherell 4 months ago

I think if Activity B has zero duration, it might push Activity C to finish earlier, but I'm not sure how that affects the overall timeline.
