These questions are just for a general case and the answer is based on PMP book ethics and principal. So don’t work with these questions as an exam you are right or wrong as you know on the real life there is not black and white most of the scenarios is grey.

      2. Questions

      From these question and answer you can know the best answer to the question with multiple choice and the answer with clarification as in section 10.3

      The construction manager is away from the project and replacing by new one. The project manager meets with the replacement construction manager and his team. In this meeting, what is the first issue the project manager should start the meeting?

      Introduce team members

      Communicate the objectives of the project

      Clarify the authority

      Create communication plan

      2-After you have been assigned to a project, according to schedule you should be completed 50% of the project. You discover that the project is running far behind schedule, So the project will probably take double the time originally estimated by the previous project manager. On the other hand, you discover that, upper management has been informed that the project is on schedule.

      4- The client project manager asks you to provide a written cost estimate that is 30% higher than your estimate of the project's cost. He explains that the budgeting process requires managers to estimate pessimistically to ensure enough money is allocated for projects.

      What is the BEST way to handle this?

      Add the 30% as a lump sum contingency fund to handle project risks

      Add the 30% to your cost estimate by spreading it evenly across all project tasks

      Create one cost baseline for budget allocation and
