Phase4

1. The total number of days to complete the project is 64.
Thus, if the project starts on 1st September 2014, it will finish on 27th November 2014 if we consider 64 working days.
Hence the total number of working hours would be 512 (64*8) which would come down to a total cost of 53,760$. For an android app, this is a very reasonable budget.
Since building the components will happen in parallel, we only need around 8 employees for various tasks in the project. Thus each employee needs to give about 64 hours for this project.
The critical path can be seen in the project file that is included with the summary.
The following is a breakup of time and cost required per phase of the software development.
