Revise Stakeholder Management Concepts: Project Stakeholder Management
The correct answer is A.
A project manager must understand the legal implications of her actions. A contract is a legally binding document. Choice B involves just making notes. It does nothing to resolve the issue, so it cannot be best. There is no reason for the buyer to terminate (choice C), just because the seller does not want to continue. A signed contract is legally binding. If you selected choice D first, the seller could be taking such action as stopping work, removing resources, or otherwise negatively impacting the project while you are holding the meeting. It is best to first remind the seller that he is legally bound to continue. You could follow up that action with choice D.

A change in cost may not affect the time a project takes to complete (choice B). There is nothing in the question to suggest that the methods to find and make changes (choice C) are faulty.

The correct answer is D.
A risk analysis (choice A) may help, but not as much as a resource-limited schedule (choice D). A responsibility assignment matrix (choice B) shows who is responsible for what, as does a responsibility chart (choice C). They will not help you manage the project with limited resources. Only D will help meet the defined need.

The key words here are “performance over time.” A forecasting report (choice B) looks only to the future. A status report (choice C) is generally static (relating to a moment in time). A variance report (choice D) looks at specific project items or activities compared to the plan. The only choice that addresses performance “over time” is a trend report (choice A).

The correct answer is B.
To mitigate risk (choice A) we either reduce the probability of the event happening or reduce its impact. Many people think of using insurance as a way of decreasing impact. However, mitigating risk is taking action before a risk event occurs. Acceptance of risk (choice C) does not involve such action as purchasing insurance. Avoidance of risk (choice D) means that we change the way we will execute the project so the risk is no longer a factor. Transference is passing the risk off to another party.
