Certification of Capability in Business Analysis (CCBA) — Question 82
A business analyst must consider the business value a solution brings in relation to the cost of implementing the desired solution. Suppliers will often be limited in the amount of requirements they can implement based on the allocated resources. If there are not enough resources to implement all of the solutions, what can the business analyst create to justify the additional funds for the implementation?
Answer options
- A. Business case
- B. Cost analysis
- C. Risk assessment with positive risk analysis
- D. Benefits-cost ratio
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is D, as a benefits-cost ratio helps to clearly demonstrate the financial advantages of the solution relative to its costs, justifying the need for additional funds. Options A and B, while useful for various analyses, do not directly focus on justifying funding in the context of resource constraints. Option C is more about identifying potential risks rather than justifying additional financial resources.
