Jenny is the project manager for the NBT projects. She is working with the project team and several subject matter experts to perform the quantitative risk analysis process. During this process she and the project team uncover several risks events that were not previously identified. What should Jenny do with these risk events?

  1. The events should be entered into qualitative risk analysis.
  2. The events should be determined if they need to be accepted or responded to.
  3. The events should be entered into the risk register.
  4. The events should continue on with quantitative risk analysis.

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

All identified risk events should be entered into the risk register.

A risk register is an inventory of risks and exposure associated with those risks. Risks are commonly found in project management practices, and provide information to identify, analyze, and manage risks. Typically a risk register contains:
A description of the risk
The impact should this event actually occur The probability of its occurrence
Risk Score (the multiplication of Probability and Impact)
A summary of the planned response should the event occur
A summary of the mitigation (the actions taken in advance to reduce the probability and/or impact of the event)
Ranking of risks by Risk Score so as to highlight the highest priority risks to all involved.

Incorrect Answers:
A: Before the risk events are analyzed they should be documented in the risk register. B: The risks should first be documented and analyzed.
D: These risks should first be identified, documented, passed through qualitative risk analysis and then it should be determined if they should pass through the quantitative risk analysis process.



You are working on a project in an enterprise. Some part of your project requires e-commerce, but your enterprise choose not to engage in e-commerce. This scenario is demonstrating which of the following form?

  1. risk avoidance
  2. risk treatment
  3. risk acceptance
  4. risk transfer

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

Each business process involves inherent risk. Not engaging in any activity avoids the inherent risk associated with the activity. Hence this demonstrates risk avoidance.

Incorrect Answers:
B: Risk treatment means that action is taken to reduce the frequency and impact of a risk.

C: Acceptance means that no action is taken relative to a particular risk, and loss is accepted when/if it occurs. This is different from being ignorant of risk; accepting risk assumes that the risk is known, i.e., an informed decision has been made by management to accept it as such.

D: Risk transfer/sharing means reducing either risk frequency or impact by transferring or otherwise sharing a portion of the risk. Common techniques include insurance and outsourcing. These techniques do not relieve an enterprise of a risk, but can involve the skills of another party in managing the risk and reducing the financial consequence if an adverse event occurs.



Which of the following are risk components of the COSO ERM framework? Each correct answer represents a complete solution. Choose three.

  1. Risk response
  2. Internal environment
  3. Business continuity
  4. Control activities

Answer(s): A,B,D

Explanation:

The risk components defined by the COSO ERM are internal environment, objective settings, event identification, risk assessment, risk response, control objectives, information and communication, and monitoring.

Incorrect Answers:
C: Business continuity is not considered as risk component within the ERM framework.



Your project team has completed the quantitative risk analysis for your project work. Based on their findings, they need to update the risk register with several pieces of information. Which one of the following components is likely to be updated in the risk register based on their analysis?

  1. Listing of risk responses
  2. Risk ranking matrix
  3. Listing of prioritized risks
  4. Qualitative analysis outcomes

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

The outcome of quantitative analysis can create a listing of prioritized risks that should be updated in the risk register. The project team will create and update the risk register with four key components:
probabilistic analysis of the project
probability of achieving time and cost objectives list of quantified risks
trends in quantitative risk analysis

Incorrect Answers:
A, B, D: These subjects are not updated in the risk register as a result of quantitative risk analysis.
