Certified Business Analysis Professional (CBAP) — Question 270

Which of the following is a visual decomposition of the project scope?

Answer options

• A. Budgeted Cost of Work Scheduled (BCWS)
• B. Resource Breakdown Structure (RBS)
• C. product breakdown structure (PBS)
• D. Work Breakdown Structure (WBS)

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) is the correct answer because it provides a hierarchical decomposition of the project scope into manageable sections. The other options, while related to project management, do not serve as a visual representation of the project scope; BCWS is a cost measurement, RBS focuses on resources, and PBS is specific to product components.
