SAINT GBA334 Application Assignment 5

.GBA 334 Application Assignment 5 Instructions

Application assignments require solving problems from the textbook. Most of the

problems require that you use Excel QM. Some chapters will require you to use POM

QM for Windows or TreePlan. The answers must be submitted to the Dropbox in a

Microsoft Word or Microsoft Excel file.

You must state your answers within a complete sentence so that your understanding of

applying the results of the computations can be observed. You should also include the

work for your computation; this will assist in applying partial credit if your answers are

not correct.

Do not submit QM for Windows files as server security policies do not allow many of

these files to be passed in the system. If you need to show the QM work, either save as

an Excel file (a function within QM) or paste a screen capture of the QM Entry Screen

before solving AND the QM result screen(s).

NOTE: QM files should not be sent through the online system. If using QM for your

solution, run the file in QM and then copy and paste the solution into a MS Excel file

(within QM there is an option tab at bottom of the screen to save as MS Excel.) If you

cannot do this, with the QM solution file open on your screen, select alt-print screen and

then paste the image into a MS Excel file.

If you need any assistance, please do not hesitate to contact your instructor. He or she

will be happy to assist.

For this module, you will complete the following problems from the textbook: Chapter 6,

pages 280-282, Problems 20, 22, 30, and 35 using Excel QM/POM QM. NOTE: For

Problem 30, there is no need to solve the problem using linear programming

methods. Instead, you should focus on solving using the project management

capabilities within Excel QM/POM QM. Linear programming will be covered in Module 7.

Submit Application Assignment 5 to the Dropbox no later than Sunday 11:59 EST/EDT

of Module 5. Remember, the required formats are Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel.
