In CPM, the cost slope is determined by
A. $$\frac{{{\text{Crash cost}}}}{{{\text{Normal cost}}}}$$
B. $$\frac{{{\text{Crash cost}} - {\text{Normal cost}}}}{{{\text{Normal time}} - {\text{Crash time}}}}$$
C. $$\frac{{{\text{Normal cost}}}}{{{\text{Crash cost}}}}$$
D. $$\frac{{{\text{Normal cost}} - {\text{Crash cost}}}}{{{\text{Normal time}} - {\text{Crash time}}}}$$
Answer: Option B
Solution(By Examveda Team)
The term 'cost-slope' is defined as the “increase in the cost of the activity per unit decrease in the time”.Cost slope = $$\frac{{{\text{Crash cost}} - {\text{Normal cost}}}}{{{\text{Normal time}} - {\text{Crash time}}}}$$
