PMI Professional in Business Analysis (PMI-PBA) — Question 62

A few months into a project, the business analyst determines that the costs are exceeding the perceived benefits. The business analyst wants to address the possible risks of having to cancel the product.
Which of the following documents should be used?

Answer options

• A. Stakeholder impact matrix
• B. Project charter
• C. Business analysis plan
• D. Business case

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D, the Business case, as it outlines the justification for the project and analyzes its benefits versus costs, which is crucial in assessing the risk of cancellation. The other documents, while useful, do not specifically focus on the financial justification and risk analysis needed in this scenario.
