PMI Agile Certified Practitioner (PMI-ACP) — Question 109

What should a team do when they complete all sprint goals earlier than expected?

Answer options

• A. Begin working on an item in the backlog
• B. Ask the scrum master to select an item from the backlog on which to work
• C. Ask the product owner to select an item from the backlog on which to work
• D. Jointly decide with the scrum master on an item from the backlog on which to work

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because the product owner has the responsibility of prioritizing the backlog and selecting items that align with the project goals. Options A, B, and D either do not involve the product owner or suggest actions that are not in line with Scrum practices, which emphasize collaboration with the product owner for backlog decisions.
