Certified Data Management Professional – Fundamentals (CDMP) — Question 129

A pensioner who usually receives a quarterly bill of around $300 was sent a $100,000,000 electricity bill. They were a victim of poor data quality checks in which dimension?

Answer options

• A. Integrity
• B. Accuracy
• C. Reasonableness
• D. Currency
• E. Timeliness

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C. Reasonableness refers to the expected range of values for a given data set; a $100,000,000 bill is unreasonable compared to the expected $300. Options A, B, D, and E do not directly address the issue of whether the data falls within a reasonable range, which is the core of this scenario.
