16. D - Since the drug testing raised doubts over the chemicals supplied by
the contractor, you must ensure that the contractor is satisfying quality
requirements by inspecting and auditing the seller’s deliverables.
Auditing can also include seller's personnel. All other actions, including
meeting with the sponsor and stakeholders, can be performed later if the
seller is not meeting contractual requirements. Therefore, your first
action should be to perform audits and inspections to verify compliance
of the seller's deliverables. [PMBOK 6th edition, Page 498] [Project
Procurement Management]
17. C - Since the project manager is spending most of the money and
managing resources, he or she is currently in the execution phase of the
project. Spending levels reach a maximum in the execution phase.
Stakeholder influences on the project decrease over the life of the
project. Hence, stakeholder influence is now less than in previous phases.
[PMBOK 6th edition, Page 549] [Project Framework]

with their background, experience, skills and qualifications. [PMI Code
of Ethics & Professional Conduct] [Prof. Responsibility]

[PMBOK 6th edition, Page 156] [Project Scope Management]
26. D - The delays are considered risks to the project. In this scenario, the
reassessment indicated a decline in the risk (delay time) compared to the
initial risk identification. The risk reassessment is performed in the
Monitor Risks process, and the outcome of the risk reassessment updates
the risk register. Therefore, Jen must take steps to update the risk
register. Other steps can be taken after updating the risk register.

[PMBOK 6th edition, Page 348] [Project Resource Management]

information is part of the communications management plan. [PMBOK
6th edition, Page 377] [Project Communications Management]

develop a path forward. [PMI Code of Ethics and Professional Conduct]
[Prof. Responsibility]

45. B - A project statement of work and a business case are inputs to the
Develop Project Charter process. A project charter is an output of the

46. D - The project management plan defines how the project is executed,
monitored, controlled, and closed. [PMBOK 6th Edition, Page 83]
47. D - A Schedule Performance Index (SPI) of less than one indicates that
less work has completed than planned, and a Cost Performance Index
(CPI) of less than one indicates a cost overrun for the work completed. In
this scenario, the cost overrun is more severe than the schedule delay.
Therefore, you should focus on reducing the cost of the project.
[PMBOK 6th edition, Page 263] [Project Cost Management]
49. A - When you find a defective product, you must notify stakeholders
immediately even if the deviation may not affect customers. As a project
manager, you must maintain honesty and should not hide facts. After
notifying the stakeholders, the project manager must discuss the issue
with the team and change the project management plan based on the
stakeholders’ inputs. [PMI Code of Ethics and Professional Conduct]
[Prof. Responsibility]
50. C - You are in the process of determining the status of the project
schedule and investigating the factors that caused schedule changes.
From this scenario, you are currently in the Control Schedule process.
What-if analysis is used in the Control Schedule process to see how
various factors influence the schedule. One output of this process is to
generate change requests to correct the schedule. Hence, you should
generate a change request for the required corrective action. [PMBOK
6th edition, Page 229] [Project Schedule Management]
