System Project. Using the "complexity weighting" scheme shown in table below and the function point complexity weighted table shown below, estimate the total function point count. Assume historical data suggest five function points equal on person month and six people can work on the project.

Function Point Complexity
a. What is the estimated project duration?
b. If 20 people are available for the project, what is the estimated project duration?
c. If the project must be complete in six months, how many people will be needed for the project?
