Complete Question:
The project represented by this resource load chart (see attached) has a maximum limit of 6 units of resource activity in any day. The first activities that are strong candidates for shifting are:
A) Activity A
B) Activities B and C
C) Activities D and E
D) Activity E and F
Answer:
The first activities that are strong candidates for shifting are:
C) Activities D and E
Explanation:
Activities D and E have a total time of 5 days altogether based on the attached resource load chart. They have the least time and can be shifted to accommodate other activities before they can be tackled sequentially.
A resource load chart displays the total amount of resources required as a function of time in any given project. It is the best method for establishing the existence of some resource conflicts across project activities, especially when compared to Gantt Charts, Network Diagrams, and Pareto Diagrams.
Answer: They are both right.
Explanation:
Firms in every market will always maximise profit where their Marginal Revenue equals Marginal Cost because at this point, resources are being fully utilized. This is therefore no different in a Perfectly competitive market so Skip is correct.
Peggy is also correct however because in a Perfectly Competitive market, the demand curve is perfectly elastic. This creates a situation where the Price, Marginal Revenue and Average Revenue are all the same and represent the demand curve as well.
With the Price being the same as the Marginal Revenue in a Perfectly competitive firm, that means that where the Price equals Marginal Cost is where the Marginal Revenue equals Marginal Cost as well so indeed perfectly competitive firms maximize profit where price equals marginal cost.
