The different bars in the diagram above provide information about different orders invarious categories (Art, Binders, ….) that were booked in the first two weeks of Septemberof a store for one client. The colour and pattern of a bar denotes the ship mode (First Class/ Second Class / Standard Class). The left end point of a bar indicates the booking day ofthe order, while the right end point indicates the dispatch day of the order. The differencebetween the dispatch day and the booking day (measured in terms of the number of days)is called the processing time of the order. For the same category, an order is consideredfor booking only after the previous order of the same category is dispatched. No twoconsecutive orders of the same category had identical ship mode during this period.

For example, there were only two orders in the furnishing category during this period. Thefirst one was shipped in the Second Class. It was booked on Sep 1 and dispatched on Sep5. The second order was shipped in the Standard class. It was booked on Sep 5 (althoughthe order might have been placed before that) and dispatched on Sep 12. So theprocessing times were 4 and 7 days respectively for these orders.

The figure above shows the schedule of four employees – Abani, Bahni, Danni and Tinni – whom Dhoni supervised in 2020. Altogether there were five projects which started and concluded in 2020 in which they were involved. For each of these projects and for each employee, the starting day was at the beginning of a month and the concluding day was the end of a month, and these are indicated by the left and right end points of the corresponding horizontal bars. The number within each bar indicates the percentage of assigned work completed by the employee for that project, as assessed by Dhoni.

For each employee, his/her total project-month (in 2020) is the sum of the number of months (s)he worked across the five project, while his/her annual completion index is the weightage average of the completion percentage assigned from the different projects, with the weights being the corresponding number of months (s)he worked in these projects. For each project, the total employee-month is the sum of the number of months four employees worked in this project, while its completion index is the weightage average of the completion percentage assigned for the employees who worked in this project, with the weights being the corresponding number of months they worked in this project.

Which of the following statements is/are true?

I: The total project-month was the same for the four employees.
II: The total employee-month was the same for the five projects.
