Crashing a project involves adding resources or changing the project plan to decrease the overall project duration. However, there comes a point when additional crashing does not provide any significant reduction in project duration, or the cost of crashing exceeds the benefit gained from reducing the project duration. At this point, crashing should cease to avoid incurring unnecessary costs without a significant improvement in project completion time. Therefore, the correct choice is C, when the cost to crash equals or exceeds the benefit of crashing.
