PHY 150 PROJECT ONE SUPPLY DROP
PLAN UPDATED EXAM QUESTIONS AND
CORRECT ANSWERS
●● AB testing
Answer: A marketing approach used to determine user preferences by
showing different sets of users similar services with one independent
variable.
●● AC*
Answer: (Actual Cost) The realized cost incurred for the work
performed on an activity during a specific time period.
●● accept
Answer: A strategy for managing negative risks or opportunities that
involves acknowledging a risk and not taking any action until the risk
occurs.
●● acceptance criteria
Answer: A set of conditions that is required to be met before deliverables
are accepted.
●● active listening
,Answer: A communication technique that involves acknowledging what
you hear, and clarifying the message to confirm that what you heard
matches the message that the sender intended.
●● activity attributes*
Answer: Multiple attributes associated with each schedule activity that
can be included within the activity list.
●● activity dependency
Answer: A logical relationship that exists between two project activities.
The relationship indicates whether the start of an activity is contingent
upon an event or input from outside the activity.
●● activity duration estimates*
Answer: The quantitative assessments of the likely number of time
periods that are required to complete an activity.
●● activity list*
Answer: A documented tabulation of scheduleactivities that shows the
activity description, activity identifier, and a sufficiently detailed scope-
of-work description so project team members understand what work is
to be performed.
●● activity*
,Answer: A distinct, scheduled portion of work performed during the
course of a project.
●● administrative closure
Answer: Involves verifying and documenting project results to formalize
project or phase completion.
●● Affinity diagram*
Answer: A technique that allows large numbers of ideas to be classified
into groups for review and analysis.
●● agile life cycles*
Answer: A project life cycle that is iterative or incremental. Also referred

intentions of a project. Examples include contracts, memorandums of
understanding (MOUs), service level agreements (SLAs), letters of
agreement, letters of intent, verbal agreements, email, or other written
agreements.
●● analogous estimating*
Answer: A technique for estimating the duration or cost of an activity on
a project using historical data from a similar activity or project.
●● approved change requests
Answer: Change requests that have been reviewed and approved by the
change control board (CCB) and are ready to be scheduled for
implementation.
●● assumption and constraint analysis
Answer: A process that explores the validity of the project assumptions
within the constraints and identifies risks from any incompleteness or
inaccuracy of these project assumptions.
