Assignment I (Question)
There exist 50 work items, each having an equivalent workload, and a plan is made to
complete them in 10 days. However, at the end of the 5th day, only 20 items are completed. If
the delay in progress is to be represented as the difference between the originally planned
completion date and actual completion date for the work items that are currently completed,
how many days is the delay?
a) 1 b) 2 c) 3 d) 4
Q2. It takes 10 days for Mr A to complete an activity of program development, and it takes 15
days for Mr. B to complete the same activity. When Mr. A and Mr. B work together, how
many days are required to complete this activity? Here, their individual work efficiencies
remain unchanged even when they work together.
a) 5 b) 6 c) 7.5 d) 12.5
Q3. By using the triangular distribution formula of the three-point estimation technique,
which of the following is the expected duration (in days) required for an activity? The
estimations are as shown below.
a) 4 b) 5 c) 6 d) 7
Q4. When the creation status of design documents is as described in the table below, how
many person-hours are additionally needed to complete the creation of all three types
of design documents?
Q5. According to EVM (Earned Value Management), the budget of a software development
project is $10,000 and the project duration is planned for 10 weeks. After 4 weeks, it is
revealed that only 30% of the work has been completed against a cost of $4,200. What is the
cost performance index?
1
a) 0.126 b) 0.300 c) 0.420 d) 0.714
Q6. The functional size of a new system was estimated to be 500 function points (FP). Apart
from development, the project requires 10 person-months in total for installation of the
system and education of developers. Additionally, for project management, 10% of the total
person-months of development, installation, and education is required. How many person-
months are required in total for this project? Here, the productivity in development is 10 FPs
per person-month.
a) 51 b) 60 c) 65 d) 66
Q7. Screens are created for a system that is composed of a total of 100 screens. The
breakdown of the 100 screens classified on the basis of size and complexity is shown
below.
If the total number of person-days for creating all screens is estimated by using the number of
person-days for creation shown in the table below, how many person-days are required?
Here, a review and revision of all the screens requires five (5) person-days, and project
management requires 20% of the total person-days, including the person-days for review and
revision.
a) 80 b) 85 c) 101 d) 102
Q8. When the number of programs composing the system and the number of person-days
required for coding per program are as shown in the table below, what is the minimum
number of staff members required to develop the system in 95 days? Here, in addition to
coding, the activities of design and testing are also necessary to develop the system, and those
activities require eight times as many person-days as coding.
2
a) 8 b) 9 c) 12 d) 13
Q9. The allocation of person-days for a project is as shown in the table below. The phases
from basic design to program design are completed as planned. In the programming
phase, there are 3,000 programs, of which 1,200 are completed. Which of the following is the
current percentage of completion for the entire project?
Detailed Program Programmin
Basic design Testing
design design g
0.08 0.16 0.20 0.25 0.31
a) 40 b) 44 c) 54 d) 59
Q10. Five weeks have passed since the start of a project whose schedule is shown by the
arrow diagram below. At this time, the percentage of completion of each activity is as
shown in the table below. For example, 80% of activity B is completed. In other
words, it takes one more week (20% of 5 weeks) to complete activity B. When all the
activities are evaluated based on the table, which of the following is the activity that
causes a delay in the completion of the project? Here, the remaining activities make
progress as initially planned.
a) B b) E c) F d) G
