CIMAPRO19-P01-1 Exam - Topic 7 Question 68 Discussion

Explain how probability analysis could be used to assess the risk of the evaluated projects.Select all the true statements.
A) The company can determine a range of possible outcomes for each of the cash flows in the project, for example, a high, low and medium estimate of each cash flow could be determined. and B) The net present value (NPV) of the project, if all high, low or medium estimates occurred, can be calculated along with the combined probabilities of their occurrence. and C) The probabilities can be combined to calculate the expected value of each cash flow element and of the project as a whole
D) The NPVs of a sample range of possible outcomes and the probability of each NPV can be calculated. If a small sample is taken the distribution of outcomes can be used to calculate the zero activities deviation of the NPVs and the probability of success of the projects.

Wait, can you really calculate probabilities for NPV like that? Sounds wild!

C is spot on, expected value is essential for assessing risk.

I’m not sure about D, seems a bit complicated for a small sample.

A range of outcomes is super helpful for cash flow estimates!

I feel like option D is a bit complex. I remember something about using distributions for NPVs, but the zero activities deviation part is confusing.

Option C seems right to me. I recall we practiced calculating expected values for cash flows, so that should apply here too.

I'm a bit unsure about option B. I think we can calculate NPV with different estimates, but combining probabilities sounds tricky.

I remember we discussed how determining a range of cash flow outcomes is crucial for understanding project risks. So, I think option A makes sense.

Okay, I think I've got it. If the information is confirming users' earlier expectations, then that must be the "confirmatory value" characteristic. That makes the most sense to me.

The key here is to focus on reducing vulnerabilities. That seems like the most relevant and important objective for software security testing.
