Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

To ascertain the veracity of the provided statements, an analysis of the given schedule and definitions is required. This analysis will involve calculating the total project-months for the four employees and the total employee-months for the five projects.

Step-by-step Analysis:

I. Total project-month for the four employees:

• Determine the duration of work for each employee across all projects:
  • Abani: Engaged from January to March, March to May, and July to September, resulting in a total of 8 months.
  • Bahni: Engaged from March to May, May to July, and September to December, resulting in a total of 8 months.
  • Danni: Engaged from January to March, May to July, and July to September, resulting in a total of 8 months.
  • Tinni: Engaged from March to May, July to September, and October to December, resulting in a total of 8 months.
• Each employee's total work duration is 8 months, consequently, the total project-month is uniform across all employees.

II. Total employee-month for the five projects:

• Sum the months worked by the four employees on each individual project:
  • Project 1: January to March, involving 2 employees, for a total of 6 months.
  • Project 2: March to May, involving 3 employees, for a total of 9 months.
  • Project 3: May to July, involving 2 employees, for a total of 6 months.
  • Project 4: July to September, involving 3 employees, for a total of 9 months.
  • Project 5: September to December, involving 1 employee, for a total of 3 months.
• The total employee-month varies per project, yielding 6, 9, 6, 9, and 3 months, respectively.

Conclusion

Based on the computed values, statement I is validated as true, while statement II is invalidated as false.

Therefore, the correct designation is: Only I

Answer 2

To identify employees who did not engage in multiple projects concurrently within any month of 2020, an analysis of their project assignments is conducted, as illustrated in the figure.

• Abani: Abani's project involvement spanned two distinct projects, but never involved simultaneous work on multiple projects within the same month. Consequently, Abani did not work on multiple projects in any given month.
• Bahni: Bahni's contributions were similarly distributed across different projects in separate months, with no concurrent project engagements in any single month.
• Danni: Danni also maintained singular project commitments each month, precluding any instances of working on multiple projects concurrently.
• Tinni: The review revealed that Tinni undertook concurrent project assignments during specific months, thereby failing the criterion of not working on multiple projects in a single month.

In conclusion, the employees who did not work on multiple projects in any month are Abani, Bahni, and Danni.

Answer 3

The objective is to identify project pairs with identical durations. Project duration is defined as the span of months during which at least one employee was engaged. The schedule analysis yielded the following:

• Project 1: Duration calculation involves aggregating employee work months.
• Project 3: Duration is determined by the earliest start month and the latest end month among its employees.
• Project 4: Duration is derived from the collective work months of its employees.
• Project 5: Duration is assessed by analyzing individual employee start and end dates.

The analysis reveals:

• Project 3: Duration: January to April (4 months)
• Project 4: Duration: February to May (4 months)

Comparing the calculated durations, Project 3 and Project 4 exhibit the same duration. Consequently, the matching pair is Project 3, Project 4.

Answer 4

To rank employees by their annual completion index in descending order, a weighted average completion percentage is calculated for each. The weights are derived from the months spent on their respective projects. The subsequent table and calculations detail this process for each employee:

Employee	Projects	Months	Completion
Abani	P1, P2, P3	3, 3, 2	60, 70, 80
Bahni	P1, P4	4, 2	30, 90
Danni	P2, P3, P5	2, 3, 1	90, 60, 80
Tinni	P4, P5	3, 3	80, 70

Calculating Annual Completion Index:

• For Abani: \[ \frac{(3 \times 60 + 3 \times 70 + 2 \times 80)}{(3 + 3 + 2)} = 67.5 \]
• For Bahni: \[ \frac{(4 \times 30 + 2 \times 90)}{(4 + 2)} = 50 \]
• For Danni: \[ \frac{(2 \times 90 + 3 \times 60 + 1 \times 80)}{(2 + 3 + 1)} = 70 \]
• For Tinni: \[ \frac{(3 \times 80 + 3 \times 70)}{(3 + 3)} = 75 \]

Final Ranking in Decreasing Order of Annual Completion Index:

The employees are ranked in descending order of their annual completion index as follows:

Danni, Tinni, Abani, Bahni
