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.
