Certification of Capability in Business Analysis (CCBA) — Question 401

When a business analyst is using alternative generation, what should she always include as an output?

Answer options

• A. The cost of all requirements, some requirements, and a few core requirements
• B. The schedule of implementation for each solution
• C. The option of doing nothing
• D. The cost of each solution

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because including the costs associated with all requirements helps in evaluating the feasibility of each alternative. Options B and D focus on implementation schedules and individual solution costs, which are important but not essential outputs. Option C, while a valid consideration, does not address the comprehensive cost analysis needed for decision-making.
