🗑
Critical Chain Method   takes both cost and resource dependencies into consideration  
🗑

Cost of quality looks at...   cost of conformance and cost of non-conformance  
🗑
Present Value   the value today of future cash flows - PV=FV/(1+r) to the power of n  
🗑
Net Present Value   the present value of the total benefits (income or revenue) minus the costs over many time periods. NPV lets you compare projects - a +NPV indicates a good investment choice. The project w/the highest NPV is selected.

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
