I thought they only focused on potential losses, not defaults.

A is totally wrong, they can't ignore default risk.

Wait, they assume 100% loss? That sounds extreme!

They definitely consider both probability of default and severity of loss.

I feel like I saw a practice question that mentioned agencies assume some level of default risk. So, I might lean towards option D as well.

I'm not entirely sure, but I remember something about agencies needing to assess potential losses too. Maybe it's option D?

I think they definitely consider both the probability of default and the severity of loss. That seems to be the most comprehensive approach.

I thought they only looked at the probability of default, but now I'm confused. Could it be that they also consider how bad the loss could be?

Okay, I think I've got this. Incident management is about getting people back to work quickly, while problem management is focused on preventing incidents from recurring. I'll select the answer that best captures that distinction.

Hmm, this looks like it's asking about Access database objects. I think I remember learning about modules in Access, but I'm not totally sure how they differ from other objects like forms or queries.
