You are in the process of developing the project schedule and would like to identify the project risks and associated risk response plans. Where would you be able to retrieve this information?
- Activity list
- Risk attributes
- Organizational process assets
- Project management plan
262. All of the following can be used to estimate the contingency reserves during Activity Duration Estimation EXCEPT:
- Quantitative schedule risk analysis
- Dependency determination
- Percentage of estimated activity duration
- Fixed number of work periods
263. The project scope management plan is an output of which of the following process?
- Scope definition
- Scope control
- Scope planning
- Develop preliminary project scope statement
264. You have been recently assigned to provide an accurate project schedule for a large construction company. You are evaluating the network diagram for the construction project. Your lead engineer has given you the following estimates for several critical path activity: 30 days (optimistic), 80 days (pessimistic), and 40 days (most likely). Which of the following statements are true,
assuming the beta distribution?
- There is approx. 95 percent chance that the activity will complete roughly between 36 days and 53 days
- There is approx. 95 percent chance that the activity will complete roughly between 20 days and 70 days
- There is approx. 99 percent chance that the activity will complete roughly between 28 days and 61 days
- There is approx. 68 percent chance that the activity will complete roughly between 36 days and 53 days
265. You are in the process of estimating the type and quantity of resources needed to complete individual schedule activities. All of the following are tools/ techniques you can use in this process EXCEPT:
- Published estimated data, project management software
- Expert judgment
- Reserve analysis
- Bottom-up estimating
266. Which of the following statements are true regarding estimation techniques?
- Three-point estimating is a method of estimating based on three types of estimates: conservative, pessimistic, optimistic
- Analogous estimation is an estimating technique that uses statistical relationship between historical data and other variables to calculate an estimate for activity parameters, such as duration and cost
- Parametric estimation is an estimating technique that uses the historical information from the previous similar activity as the basis for forecasting. Analogous estimation is a form of expert judgment
- Bottom-up estimating is a method of estimating a component of work, where the work is decomposed into greater details
267. Which of the following diagramming methods can only use finish-tostart relationships and may use dummy activities to express logical relationship between activities?
- ADM
- CPM
- GERT
- PDM
268. Which of the following are outputs of the Risk Management Planning process?
- Residual risk
- Overall risk planning
- Risk management plan
- Checklists
269. You are using three point estimating technique to estimate the estimate of a scheduled activity. Which of the following statement are true given the following data:
Pessimistic= 100 days
Optimistic= 40 days
Most likely= 65 days
Average =66.6 days
- The calculations were performed assuming a exponential distribution
- Not enough information is provided
- The calculations were performed assuming a triangular distribution
- The calculations were performed assuming a beta distribution
270. You are the project manager at a company developing an online music store. You are in the process of calculating the cost budget for this project using a combination of parametric estimation and bottom-up estimation. Which of the following statements are FALSE:
- The cost baseline is considered the expected cost of the project
- Projects may have multiple cost baselines to measure different aspects of cost performance
- The cost baseline is an output of the Cost Estimating process
- The cost baseline is used to measure project performance and variances
