Essay

Pirmin's Bike Shop is behind on a custom bike and needs to crash 8 hours of time from the 8-step project. Given the project table below calculate the crash cost for 8 hours of time-savings.

Calculate both the maximum time-savings available on a $25 crash budget and the cost to crash four hours of savings.
