Question

Keith is building custom-made kitchen cupboards. He told a customer that it would take three weeks to build the cupboards. Keith uses scheduling in his business. (1)

A.
backward

B.
forward

C.
sideward

D.
upward

E.
downward

Answer 1

In this context, the most appropriate term would be **B. forward** scheduling. Forward scheduling is when tasks are planned from a start date to determine when the project will be completed, while backward scheduling is planning from a completion date to determine when tasks should begin. Since Keith has provided a specific timeframe (three weeks) for completing the cupboards, it aligns with forward scheduling.
