CompTIA Project+ (PK0-004) — Question 572

A project manager decides to release a product one month later, knowing marketing studies have shown doing so could require increased manufacturing capacity.
Which of the following risk strategies is being employed?

Answer options

• A. Accept
• B. Exploit
• C. Transfer
• D. Mitigate

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is 'Accept' because the project manager acknowledges the risk and decides to proceed without altering the plan, understanding the implications of a delayed launch. The other options do not apply as 'Exploit' aims to take advantage of a positive risk, 'Transfer' involves shifting the risk to another party, and 'Mitigate' focuses on reducing the risk's impact.
