Monte Carlo analysis is the preferred method to use to determine the cost risk.

Monte Carlo analysis is a simulation technique that computes project costs one time.

A traditional work breakdown structure can be used as an input variable for the cost analysis.

Monte Carlo usually expresses its results as probability distributions of possible costs.

Select two

The probability and impact matrix multiplies the risk's probability by the cost of the impact to determine an expected value of the risk event.

The probability and impact matrix uses sensitivity analysis to analyze the potential impact of risk events and to determine which event has the greatest potential for impact.

The probability and impact matrix prioritizes the combination of probability and impact scores using predetermined thresholds that are set by the organization, which helps determine which risks need response plans.

The probability and impact matrix multiplies the risk's probability by the risk impact—which both fall between 0.0 and 1.0—and uses a predetermined threshold to determine the overall score.
