The effect for each task is estimated and those estimates are rolled up into the final deliverable estimate. The tasks are also prioritized‚ dependencies between tasks are identified‚ and this information is documented in a project schedule. To develop an approximation of a project cost depends on several variables including: resources‚ work packages such as labor rates and mitigating or controlling influencing
