A business analyst (BA) is developing requirements for a project with a limited budget.

Which of the following should the BA take into account to facilitate prioritization and ensure business objectives are met?

Answer options

• A. Functional decomposition
• B. Traceability
• C. Data flow
• D. Dependencies

Correct answer: B

Explanation
