CompTIA Project+ (PK0-004) — Question 399

Which of the following analyses should a project manager use to determine problem areas for corrective action planning? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. Planned value
• B. Schedule variance
• C. Acceptable variance
• D. Cost variance
• E. Earned value

Correct answer: D, E

Explanation

The correct answers are D and E because Cost variance and Earned value analyses provide insights into the financial performance and progress of the project, helping to identify problem areas. In contrast, Planned value and Schedule variance do not directly indicate the need for corrective actions, and Acceptable variance is not a standard analysis used in project management.
