Explanation:
Risk indicators are metrics used to indicate risk thresholds, i.e., it gives indication when a risk level is approaching a high or unacceptable level of risk. The main objective of a risk indicator is to ensure tracking and reporting mechanisms that alert staff about the potential risks.
Incorrect Answers:
A: A risk register is an inventory of risks and exposure associated with those risks. Risks are commonly found in project management practices, and provide information to identify, analyze, and manage risks. Typically a risk register contains:
* A description of the risk
* The impact should this event actually occur
* The probability of its occurrence
* Risk Score (the multiplication of Probability and Impact)
* A summary of the planned response should the event occur
* A summary of the mitigation (the actions taken in advance to reduce the probability and/or impact of the event)
* Ranking of risks by Risk Score so as to highlight the highest priority risks to all involved.
D: Return On Investment (ROI) is a performance measure used to evaluate the efficiency of an investment or to compare the efficiency of a number of different investments. To calculate ROI, the benefit (return) of an investment is divided by the cost of the investment; the result is expressed as a percentage or a ratio.
The return on investment formula:
ROI= (Gain from investment - Cost of investment) / Cost of investment
In the above formula "gains from investment", refers to the proceeds obtained from selling the investment of interest.

Explanation:
Expert judgment is utilized in developing risk responses, including feedback and guidance from risk management experts and those internal to the project qualified to provide assistance in this process. Expert judgment is a technique based on a set of criteria that has been acquired in a specific knowledge area or product area. It is obtained when the project manager or project team requires specialized knowledge that they do not possess. Expert judgment involves people most familiar with the work of creating estimates. Preferably, the project team member who will be doing the task should complete the estimates. Expert judgment is applied when performing administrative closure activities, and experts should ensure the project or phase closure is performed to the appropriate standards.
Incorrect Answers:
A: Contingent response strategy, also known as contingency planning, involves adopting alternatives to deal with the risks in case of their occurrence. Unlike the mitigation planning in which mitigation looks to reduce the probability of the risk and its impact, contingency planning doesn't necessarily attempt to reduce the probability of a risk event or its impacts. Contingency comes into action when the risk event actually occurs.
B: Risk acceptance means that no action is taken relative to a particular risk; loss is accepted if it occurs. If an enterprise adopts a risk acceptance, it should carefully consider who can accept the risk. Risk should be accepted only by senior management in relationship with senior management and the board. There are two alternatives to the acceptance strategy, passive and active.
* Passive acceptance means that enterprise has made no plan to avoid or mitigate the risk but willing to accept the consequences of the risk.
* Active acceptance is the second strategy and might include developing contingency plans and reserves to deal with risks.
D: Risk transfer means that impact of risk is reduced by transferring or otherwise sharing a portion of the risk with an external organization or another internal entity. Transfer of risk can occur in many forms but is most effective when dealing with financial risks. Insurance is one form of risk transfer.

is incorrect. Risk analysis comes under risk management, therefore management is a generalized term, and is not the best answer for this B is incorrect. Risk monitoring is the latter step after risk analysis and risk mitigation. Answer: A is incorrect. Risk mitigation is the latter step after analyzing risk.
