  1. Which process ensures that only approved changes are incorporated into the project baseline?

    Answer: Perform Integrated Change Control

    Perform Integrated Change Control reviews all change requests and approves or rejects modifications to baselines.

  2. A project has a BAC of $500,000, an EV of $200,000, and an AC of $250,000. What is the Variance at Completion (VAC)?

    Answer: -$125,000

    EAC = BAC/CPI = $500,000/(200,000/250,000) = $625,000; VAC = BAC - EAC = $500,000 - $625,000 = -$125,000.

  3. During project closure, the project manager should ensure which of the following is completed?

    Answer: Lessons learned are documented and archived

    Capturing and archiving lessons learned is a key closure activity that supports organizational learning and future projects.

  4. What is the key difference between a project and a program?

    Answer: A program is a group of related projects managed in a coordinated way to obtain benefits not available individually

    Programs consist of related projects whose coordinated management delivers strategic benefits and control beyond managing them separately.

  5. A project manager is managing stakeholder expectations when deliverable quality falls short. Which response is MOST appropriate?

    Answer: Proactively communicate the issue, explain the impact, and present corrective options

    Transparent, timely communication about quality issues with proposed solutions maintains stakeholder trust and enables collaborative problem-solving.

  6. Which estimating technique produces the MOST accurate estimates and requires the MOST time and resources?

    Answer: Bottom-Up Estimating

    Bottom-up estimating breaks work into its smallest components and rolls up individual estimates, providing higher accuracy at the cost of more time and effort.

  7. In a Kanban system, what is the primary purpose of setting Work in Progress (WIP) limits?

    Answer: To limit the number of tasks in each workflow stage and expose bottlenecks

    WIP limits reduce multitasking, improve flow efficiency, and make bottlenecks visible so the team can address them.
