I practiced a question similar to this, and I think acquisition was mentioned, but I’m leaning towards vendor bid analysis for this one.

I'm not entirely sure, but I remember something about earned value management being more related to tracking progress rather than estimating costs.

Forecasting makes sense to me - you'd need to use some kind of forecasting technique to estimate the future costs of the project. I'll go with D for this one.

Vendor bid analysis sounds like it could be a good option, since that's all about evaluating proposals and quotes from potential suppliers. But I'm not 100% confident that's the right answer here.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure on this one. I know Estimate Costs is all about determining the approximate cost of the project activities, but I can't remember the specific tool or technique used. I'll have to think this through carefully.
