Answer:

The correct answer is letter "D": CPM integrates time and cost performance while PERT is based solely on time performance.

Explanation:

The Project Management and Review Technique also called PERT is used to plan and control the time of uncertain activities during the development of a project. The PERT is an event-oriented technique. The Critical Path Method or CPM is a statistical technique used to control the cost and time of well-defined activities of a project. The CPM is activity-oriented.

Answer: CPM and PERT use different activity time estimates.

Explanation:

Program (Project) Management and Review Technique (PERT) is appropriate when the project time needed to complete different activities are unknown while the Critical Path Method or CPM is fitted for recurring projects in nature. PERT deals with activities that are not predictable but CPM deals with repetitive activities. PERT focuses/concentrates on time while CPM focuses on time-cost & trade-off. Also, PERT requires three-time estimate while CPM requires one-time estimate. PERT uses a probabilistic model and on the other hand, CPM uses a deterministic model. In PERT, a technique of planning and controlling time is used but CPM uses a technique to control cost and time.

ss7ja [257]

Answer:

20,000 kcal/m2 per year

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Net annual primary productivity of a particular wetland ecosystem

= 8,000 kcal/m2 per year

Respiration by the aquatic producers = 12,000 kcal/m2 per year

Now,

The gross annual primary productivity for this ecosystem will be equal to the sum of all the ecosystem and the producer in the overall ecosystem

Therefore,

gross annual primary productivity for this ecosystem

= 8,000 kcal/m2 per year + 12,000 kcal/m2 per year

= 20,000 kcal/m2 per year

horrorfan [7]

Answer:

$120,000

Explanation:

Calculation to determine What amount should M recognize as compensation expense for 2019

First step is to calculate the Value of the option using this formula

Value of the option = Stock options × Fair value of the options

Let plug in the formula

Value of the option=90,000*$5

Value of the option=$450,000

Now let determine compensation expense for 2019

2019 Compensation expense=[($450,000*(100%-10%))*2/3]-$450,000/3 years

2019 Compensation expense=[($450,000*90%)*2/3]-$150,000

2019 Compensation expense=($405,000*2/3)-$150,000

2019 Compensation expense=$270,000-$150,000

2019 Compensation expense=$120,000

Therefore The amount that M recognize should recognize as compensation expense for 2019 is $120,000
