Latest Finish Time Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Latest Finish Time = Total Float+Earliest Finish Time
LFT = TF₀+EFT
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Latest Finish Time - (Measured in Second) - Latest Finish Time is the latest time at which the activity can be completed without delaying the project.
Total Float - (Measured in Second) - Total float is the period by which an activity can shift its timing without affecting the relevant schedule completion date.
Earliest Finish Time - (Measured in Second) - Earliest Finish Time is the time of an activity that occurs if the activity starts at the earliest start time and takes an estimated time t to complete the activity.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Total Float: 24 Day --> 2073600 Second (Check conversion here)
Earliest Finish Time: 26 Day --> 2246400 Second (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

LFT = TF₀+EFT --> 2073600+2246400

Evaluating ... ...

LFT = 4320000

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

4320000 Second -->50 Day (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

50 Day <-- Latest Finish Time

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

Latest Finish Time Formula

Latest Finish Time = Total Float+Earliest Finish Time
LFT = TF₀+EFT

What is Float?

Float, sometimes called slack, is the amount of time an activity, network path, or project can be delayed from the early start without changing the completion date of the project.

What is Slack?

The Slack time for an activity is the time between its earliest and latest start time or between its earliest and latest finish time. Slack is the amount of time that an activity can be delayed past its earliest start or earliest finish without delaying the project.
