When reducing project duration, the crash cost per unit has to be calculated and the maximum units each activity can be reduced must be known. After this, the critical path must be identified. What is the next step?
A) Find the activity with the lowest crash cost
B) Calculate the optimum cost-time point
C) Calculate the crash point
D) Calculate indirect cost per time unit
E) Find the activity with the steepest cost slope
