Answer:

The project cost is a cost required to procure all the needed products, services and resources to deliver the project successfully.

Explanation:

Analogous estimation: involves comparing a past similar project to your current project and the use of analogy to estimate cost.

Parametric Estimation: This estimation uses the historical data based on the real data and saves lots of time to calculate the cost estimation.  

Bottom-up approach: also called definitive technique breaks up all activities of the project to the micro level in order to conduct comprehensive cost estimation.

The issues in project cost estimation include cost overruns, inefficiencies and project surprise. To effectively mitigated them, Bottom-up approach should be applied. It is an expensive but very reliable method.

Dave brags to his dad that his $45,000 starting salary as a computer programmer is much higher than his dad's $28,000 starting s
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

Option C Incorrect; adjusting for price changes, his salary is less than his dad's salary  

Explanation:

Adjustment to price changes = (Amount received n years ago divided by Price Index n years ago) * Price Index today

Adjustment To price changes = ($28,000 / 110.8) * 180.5 = $45613.7

The amount $28,000 is worth $45,613.7 in todays value which means that if we adjust for price changes, Dave is incorrect because his salary is worth less by an amount $613.7 from his father's salary.
