And don’t forget, the timeline will likely stretch too!

Wait, how can you be sure about the cost increase?

Totally agree, costs will go up for sure.

Project scope will definitely not decrease with added requirements.

Adding new requirements definitely increases costs.

I feel like I might be mixing things up, but I thought adding scope would decrease the overall project scope? Is that even possible?

I practiced a similar question, and I think the cost will definitely increase if we add requirements. So, B seems right to me.

I'm not entirely sure, but I think if we add more scope, it might also extend the timeline. Maybe option D is a trap?

I remember discussing how adding new requirements usually leads to increased costs, so I think option B makes sense.

Ugh, I hate these project management questions. They always try to trick you. Let me think this through step-by-step - if the scope increases, that means more work, which means higher costs and a longer timeline. I'm leaning towards B, but I'll double-check my work.

Okay, I've got this. Adding new requirements midway through the project will increase the scope, which means the cost will go up and the timeline will likely be extended. I'm pretty confident B is the right answer here.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I know the project triangle covers scope, cost, and time, but I'm not sure how adding new requirements halfway through would affect them. I'll need to carefully consider each option.

This seems like a straightforward project management question. I'll need to think through the project triangle and how adding new requirements would impact the other elements.

Yes, I think so. It will definitely increase the cost.

If we add new requirements, won't it increase the cost?

Ha! Trying to reduce the time or cost when adding new requirements? That's about as likely as a unicorn winning the Kentucky Derby. B is the only logical choice here.

I'm going with B as well. Trying to fit in new requirements without adjusting the timeline or budget is a recipe for disaster.

I agree with Gilma. The correct answer has to be B. Scope creep always leads to budget overruns.
