Effective project scheduling plays a crucial role in ensuring project success.Among other things, the schedule tells the project manager how long it will take to complete the project (or any part of it.) It’s also the basis for preparing cost and resource plans.

Cost and schedule two factors which  tied together during project executing duration 

schedule is dividing a project into several tasks each of them has beginning and finish date as well as cost , some tasks can be changed with more cost, like hiring more workforce, or paying extra to expedite materials You want to find the ones that are without cost, finding out exactly why each task on your critical path is in that path. You can also question the duration of each task, some people like to build in extra schedule time for their tasks to take care of the unexpected (like being asked to do it quicker!). If you can discover this, you can shorten the task durations, as well. These are not new techniques, this is just knowledge work.

Sir - Schedule and cost is close associates of a job, when we are evaluating it. Both increases together. Schedule shows tenure of a project and cost shows the value involved or associated with the project for the same schedule. If the schedule goes wrong and lengthy, cost will be increased and would not be controlled rationally.  To make a project profitable, which is bread and butter of all, schedule has to be made very efficiently so that project can be finished in time with best level of optimized cost incurred.
