3) Chapter 9 goes to great lengths to describe two main methods
of estimating a stock’s intrinsic value: 1) the Discounted
Dividends Model and 2) the Enterprise-Based Approach to Valuation
also know as the Corporate Valuation Model. Please explain the
basic components of these two models, compare these two models,
discuss which one is best in your opinion, and why.
Compare the main strengths and weaknesses of the Gantt chart and
PERT for project management, and give your opinion on which you
believe is the most effective for project management.
Using? PERT, Adam Munson was able to determine that the expected
project completion time for the construction of a pleasure yacht is
22 ?months, and the project variance is 9.
?a) The probability that the project will be completed in 13
months? = nothing ?(round your response to four decimal?
places).
?b) The probability that the project will be completed in 21
months? = nothing ?(round your response to four decimal?
places).
?c) The probability that the project will be...
Question 1: Compare and contrast the project evaluation and
review technique (PERT) with the critical path method (CPM).
Question 2: Explain in detail Eliyahu Goldratt’s Theory of
Constraints with a brief note on its application in Project
Management.
Write a brief report on a real-life project that can be
organized using PERT. Books on operations research and project
management often have sections on PERT which is sometimes called
the critical path method or CPM. Find references on the internet
for commercial software that draws PERT diagrams and describe sine
of these products and their applications.
Problem #4
PERT Analysis: Consider the project with the
following estimates for activity times and precedence relationships
(be sure to use the triple time estimate). All times are in
days:
Activity
Optimistic
Time
