The task of allocating requirements is the future task in the business analysis domain that will need the solution scope. The four inputs to the solution scope are assumptions and constraints, business need, required capabilities, and solution approach.

Answer B is incorrect. Assumptions and constraints is one of the four inputs to the solution scope.

Answer C is incorrect. Business need is one of the four inputs to the solution scope.

Answer A is incorrect. Required capability is one of the four inputs to the solution scope.

The only input to the task of defining assumptions and constraints is stakeholder concern.

Answer C is incorrect. Requirements aren't inputs to the task of defining assumptions and constraints. Answer B is incorrect. Prioritized requirements aren't inputs to the task of defining assumptions and constraints.

Answer A is incorrect. The business case isn't an input to the task of defining assumptions and constraints.

Brainstorming is the business analysis solution the business analyst should use to generate a broad set of options.

Answer C is incorrect. Benchmarking compares two comparable businesses, solutions, systems, or other entities for measurement, goal setting, and idea generation.

Answer A is incorrect. Business rules analysis defines the rules that govern decisions in an organization and that define, constrain, or enable organizational operations.

Answer D is incorrect. Data flow diagrams illustrate how information is input, processed, stored, and output from systems.

The prime purpose of the Manage Stakeholders Expectations process is to resolve issues. These issues may be from different areas of the project. An issue log or action item log can be used to document and monitor the resolution of issues. It can be used to facilitate communication and ensure a common understanding of issues. Issues are resolved to maintain good, constructive working relationships among various stakeholders, including team members.

Answer B is incorrect. Although, the Manage Stakeholders Expectations process helps in closing the project, it is not the prime purpose of this process.

Answer A is incorrect. Stakeholders identification is done in the separate process named Identify Stakeholders.

Answer D is incorrect. Risk register is a document that contains the results of the qualitative risk analysis, quantitative risk analysis, and risk response planning. Description, category, cause, probability of occurring, impact on objectives, proposed responses, owner, and the current status of all identified risks are put in the risk register. Updating risk registers is done throughout the project duration. It is not the prime purpose of the Manage Stakeholders Expectations process.

Risk analysis is not considered for prioritization of requirements. The correct inputs are business case, business need, requirements, requirements management plan, and the stakeholder list, roles, and responsibilities.

Answer D is incorrect. Business case is needed as an input for the task of prioritizing requirements.

Answer B is incorrect. Business need is needed as an input for the task of prioritizing requirements.

Answer C is incorrect. The requirements management plan is needed as an input for the task of prioritizing requirements.

Benchmarking is the only valid business analysis process that compares the strengths and weaknesses of an organization against other similar entities.

Answer A is incorrect. Brainstorming generates ideas and inputs to the business analysis process.

Answer C is incorrect. Comparative analysis is not a valid BABOK term, so this choice is incorrect.

Answer B is incorrect. Market analysis is not a valid BABOK term, so this choice is incorrect.

When the business analyst and stakeholders are generating as many potential options as possible for a solution, it's called alternative generation.

Answer B is incorrect. Brainstorming is not used as an element for the solution approach process.

Answer D is incorrect. Lateral thinking is not an element used in the solution approach process.

Answer C is incorrect. Prototyping creates models and mockups of a solution.

The Delphi Technique uses rounds of anonymous surveys to build consensus among the stakeholders. Answer B is incorrect. The workshop is not an example of the Delphi Technique.

Answer D is incorrect. The round table is a discussion of a topic, not a requirements elicitation technique. Answer C is incorrect. Prototyping is not the equivalent of the Delphi Technique.

Interface analysis is not an event-based elicitation technique. It is an elicitation technique that identifies interfaces between solutions and how the interfaces will interact.

Answer D is incorrect. A workshop is an event-based elicitation technique. Answer A is incorrect. A focus group is an event-based elicitation technique. Answer C is incorrect. An interview is an eventbased elicitation technique.
