How is the optimum cost-time point determined? What are the conditions that must exist for one to be present at a project duration other than the duration originally created under normal conditions?

Fill in the blank(s) with the appropriate word(s).


Answer will vary

The optimum cost-time point is the point in the project when total costs (direct costs + indirect costs) are the least. As a project duration is reduced, direct costs increase and indirect costs will decrease each time unit. The savings from indirect costs must be larger than the increase in direct costs in order for an optimum cost-point to be present at a duration other than the duration originally created under normal conditions.
