That's a good point, but based on the fixed schedule in the question, the project will indeed be late by two days.

Bless your heart, Stephen, but your tardiness is going to cost us all. Looks like C is the only logical choice here. Maybe next time, you can try being early for a change!

But what if we can adjust the schedule to accommodate Stephen's delay?

I agree with Glendora, Stephen's delay will make the project late by two days.

I don't know, this just seems like a straightforward critical path analysis. If B is delayed, it has to push the end date back by two days. Simple as that. Option C gets my vote.

Two days late, huh? That's like me trying to finish my taxes on time - it ain't happening! But hey, at least the boss can't fire us for being human, right? C is my pick.

Let's hope for the best and that the impact won't be too severe. But yeah, C is the safest bet.

Don't worry, we all have those days. C does seem like the most likely outcome.

Hold up, I'm not so sure about that. Let me take another look at the diagram. Ah, I see now, the project schedule is fixed, so B's delay won't affect the end date. A it is!

Hmm, this looks tricky. Since Activity B is on the critical path, any delay will directly impact the project end date, so I'm going with option C.

Yes, since Activity B is on the critical path, any delay will result in a two-day delay in the project end date.
