   A project manager is monitoring the cost performance of a project. The earned value (EV) is $50,000, the planned value (PV) is $60,000, and the actual cost (AC) is $55,000. The project manager wants to forecast the estimate at completion (EAC) if the current cost performance trend continues. What is the EAC?

   • A$55,000
   • B$50,000
   • C$60,000
   • D$66,000

   A project manager is prioritizing risks for a large infrastructure project. The project has a limited budget for risk responses. The project manager has identified three risks with the following probability and impact scores (on a 1-5 scale): Risk A (probability 4, impact 5), Risk B (probability 5, impact 3), Risk C (probability 2, impact 5). The project manager also knows that Risk A and Risk B are correlated, meaning if Risk A occurs, the probability of Risk B increases. How should the project manager prioritize these risks?

   • ARisk A, Risk C, Risk B
   • BRisk C, Risk A, Risk B
   • CRisk A, Risk B, Risk C
   • DRisk B, Risk A, Risk C
