Are we sure about this? Seems a bit too straightforward.

Definitely 5 EQs, that's how it usually goes.

Wait, why would there be 5 EIs? That seems off.

I think it's actually 1 EI, not 5.

Sounds like 5 EQs for sure!

I vaguely recall that each logical file contributes to the count, so maybe it's 5 EQs and 1 EI? That sounds familiar from our last review session.

I feel like I might be mixing up the definitions of EQ and EI. I think there are 5 EQs for the files, but I'm not confident about the EIs.

This question seems similar to one we practiced where we had to identify EQs and EIs. I think we might have counted each logical file as an EQ.

I remember we discussed how to count logical files in data conversion, but I'm not sure if it's just the EQs or if we need to consider EIs too.

I've seen questions like this before. I'll start by listing out the 5 logical files and then determine the appropriate conversion type for each.

Okay, I've got this. The key is to identify the number of logical files referenced and the type of conversion for each one.

Hmm, I'm a bit confused about the difference between EQ and EI. I'll need to review those concepts before attempting this.

Ah, the joys of software conversion projects. I'm going with C, but I hope I don't have to debug any of this code!

Haha, I bet the exam creators are having a field day with these 'logical file' questions. Time to flex my COSMIC function point muscles!

I'm not too sure about this one. Does the 1 EI refer to the new Client Master File in the Relationship Management application? This is a tricky one.

Hmm, I think the answer is C. 5 EQs and 1 EI seems logical since the conversion software is accessing 5 logical files in the Account application.

I think C makes sense too, it's a combination of both EQs and EIs.

I see both points, but I think the correct answer is actually 1 EQ, 1 EI as it simplifies the counting process.

I disagree, I believe it should be counted as 5 EQs, 5 EIs because each logical file should be considered separately.
