Which of the following is an example of work performance information?
a. A project manager realizes that a late shipment will delay the entire project by 4 days
b. A project manager manager shares a report with stakeholders that contains an updated project
schedule.
c. A develop informs you that a task takes 3 hours to perform
d. A QA analyst writes a blog post containing tornado diagrams from the latest round of testing. -
ANSWER a. A project manager realizes that a late shipment will delay the entire project by 4 days
The realization by the project manager about the impact that a late shipment has on the project is work
performance information. This is information because the raw data has been analyzed and assessed for
the impact on the project. The developer's statement about duration is simply raw data; there is no
assessment of this data to qualify it as information. The report on the project schedule and blog post
containing diagrams are both examples of reports because this information has been distributed and can
be acted on.
Rose has a student intern shadowing her for the day to learn about project management. Rose is

the change management process. Which of the following is not a responsibility of the project manager?
A. The project manager is responsible for approving or rejecting change requests.
B. The project manager should prevent the root causes of changes
, C. The project manager is responsible for developing the change management plan.
D. The project manager is responsible for assessing the impacts of proposed changes. - ANSWER A. The
Project Manager is responsible for approving or rejecting change requests.
Conducting a stakeholder analysis will help ensure that all project benefits are identified. This allows all
stakeholders to voice what it is they hope that the project will achieve. Sharing all project reports may be
unnecessary and will not help identify project benefits. Composing a requirements traceability matrix
will help ensure that requirements are met, but these are only known requirements. This may overlook
unknown project benefits. Approving all change requests is unnecessary and not helpful for identifying
project benefits.
Which of the following represents a compliance risk?
A. A strike near the Panama Canal threatens a project's on-time delivery
B. A key technical contributor left the company for another job
C. A software developer does not enable two-factor authentication in a database containing customers'
financial data
D. A rare material required for manufacturing may not be available in the quantity needed. - ANSWER C.
A software developer does not enable two-factor authentication in a database containing customers'
financial data.
Every example here is an example of a risk, however, only the lack of two-factor authentication is an
example of compliance risk. This is a compliance risk because of the lack of extra security, two-factor
authentication. This is a legal risk when handling customer data. All other examples here are general
project risks, not compliance risks.
