NEW QUESTION 139
What is the most accurate rough order of magnitude (ROM)?
- A. In the Closing phase, the estimate is in the range of +/- 15%.
- B. In the Initiation phase, the estimate is in the range of +/- 50%.
- C. In the Monitoring and Controlling phase, the estimate is in the range of +/- 15%.
- D. In the Planning phase, the estimate is in the range of +/- 50%.
Answer: B
Explanation:
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
A rough order of magnitude (ROM) estimate is the least accurate estimate. A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (The PMBOKĀ® Guide), 5th Edition gives the guidelines that ROMs are -
50% to +50% accurate, the PMBOK Guide 5th Edition gives the guidelines that ROMs are -25% to +75% accurate, or potentially even larger. It should be noted that stated percentages are not the main takeaway are not likely specifically tested on; it is more the concept and idea that ROMs are a rough estimate, are used early in the project when info is limited, and are hence the least accurate.

NEW QUESTION 141
Which document describes the necessary information to determine if a project is worth the required investment?
- A. Service level agreement
- B. Memorandum of understanding
- C. Cost baseline
- D. Business case
Answer: D
Explanation:
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
4.1.1.2 Business Case
The business case or similar document describes the necessary information from a business standpoint to determine whether or not the project is worth the required investment. It is commonly used for decision making by managers or executives above the project level. Typically, the business need and the cost- benefit analysis are contained in the business case to justify and establish boundaries for the project, and such analysis is usually completed by a business analyst using various stakeholder inputs. The sponsor should agree to the scope and limitations of the business case. The business case is created as a result of one or more of the following:
Market demand (e.g., a car company authorizing a project to build more fuel-efficient cars in response to
gasoline shortages),
Organizational need (e.g., due to high overhead costs a company may combine staff functions and
streamline processes to reduce costs.),
Customer request (e.g., an electric utility authorizing a project to build a new substation to serve a new
industrial park),
Technological advance (e.g., an airline authorizing a new project to develop electronic tickets instead of
paper tickets based on technological advances),
Legal requirement (e.g., a paint manufacturer authorizing a project to establish guidelines for handling
toxic materials),
Ecological impacts (e.g., a company authorizing a project to lessen its environmental impact), or
Social need (e.g., a nongovernmental organization in a developing country authorizing a project to
provide potable water systems, latrines, and sanitation education to communities suffering from high rates of cholera).
Each of the examples in this list may contain elements of risk that should be addressed. In the case of multiphase projects, the business case may be periodically reviewed to ensure that the project is on track to deliver the business benefits. In the early stages of the project life cycle, periodic review of the business case by the sponsoring organization also helps to confirm that the project is still aligned with the business case. The project manager is responsible for ensuring that the project effectively and efficiently meets the goals of the organization and those requirements of a broad set of stakeholders, as defined in the business case.
NEW QUESTION 142
Reserve analysis is a tool and technique used in which process?
- A. Control Risks
- B. Plan Risk Responses
- C. Identify Risks
- D. Plan Risk Management
Answer: A
Explanation:
Section: Volume A
Explanation:
11.6.2.5 Reserve Analysis
Throughout execution of the project, some risks may occur with positive or negative impacts on budget or schedule contingency reserves. Reserve analysis compares the amount of the contingency reserves remaining to the amount of risk remaining at any time in the project in order to determine if the remaining reserve is adequate.
Process: 11.6 Control Risks
Definition: The process of implementing risk response plans, tracking identified risks, monitoring residual risks, identifying new risks, and evaluating risk process effectiveness throughout the project.
Key Benefit: The key benefit of this process is that it improves efficiency of the risk approach throughout the project life cycle to continuously optimize risk responses.
Inputs
1. Project management plan
2. Risk register
3. Work performance data
4. Work performance reports
Tools & Techniques
1. Risk reassessment
2. Risk audits
3. Variance and trend analysis
4. Technical performance measurement
5. Reserve analysis
6. Meetings
Outputs
1. Work performance information
2. Change requests
3. Project management plan updates
4. Project documents updates
5. Organizational process assets updates
6.5.2.6 Reserve Analysis
Duration estimates may include contingency reserves, sometimes referred to as time reserves or buffers, into the project schedule to account for schedule uncertainty. Contingency reserves are the estimated duration within the schedule baseline, which is allocated for identified risks that are accepted and for which contingent or mitigation responses are developed. Contingency reserves are associated with the "known-unknowns," which may be estimated to account for this unknown amount of rework.
As more precise information about the project becomes available, the contingency reserve may be used, reduced, or eliminated. Contingency should be clearly identified in schedule documentation.
[..]
Estimates may also be produced for the amount of management reserve of time for the project. Management reserves are a specified amount of the project duration withheld for management control purposes and are reserved for unforeseen work that is within scope of the project. Management reserves are intended to address the "unknown-unknowns" that can affect a project. Management reserve is not included in the schedule baseline, but it is part of the overall project duration requirements. Depending on contract terms, use of management reserves may require a change to the schedule baseline.
NEW QUESTION 143
At what stages of a project should the Identify Stakeholders process be performed?
- A. At the beginning of the project only
- B. Only when the project manager is concerned about stakeholder satisfaction
- C. When the project charter is produced, at the beginning of each phase, and when significant changes occur
- D. When beginning each phase of the project
Answer: A
NEW QUESTION 144

- A. Product
- B. Stakeholder
- C. Research
- D. Cost-benefit
Answer: B
NEW QUESTION 145
Which of the following is an estimating technique that uses the values of parameters from previous similar projects for estimating the same parameter or measure for a current project?
- A. Parametric estimating
- B. Reserve analysis
- C. Analogous estimating
- D. Three-point estimating
Answer: C
Explanation:
Section: Volume E
Explanation:
7.2.2.2 Analogous Estimating
Analogous cost estimating uses the values such as scope, cost, budget, and duration or measures of scale such as size, weight, and complexity from a previous, similar project as the basis for estimating the same parameter or measurement for a current project. When estimating costs, this technique relies on the actual cost of previous, similar projects as the basis for estimating the cost of the current project. It is a gross value estimating approach, sometimes adjusted for known differences in project complexity.
Analogous cost estimating is frequently used to estimate a value when there is a limited amount of detailed information about the project, for example, in the early phases of a project. Analogous cost estimating uses historical information and expert judgment
NEW QUESTION 146
