Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
First, calculate Unadjusted Function Points (UFP): UFP = (30×4) + (60×5) + (20×4) + (5×10) + (4×7) = 120 + 300 + 80 + 50 + 28 = 578. Next, determine the Value Adjustment Factor (VAF). With all complexity adjustment values at average scale 3 and 14 factors, Total Degree of Influence = 14 × 3 = 42. VAF = 0.65 + (0.01 × 42) = 1.07. Finally, calculate Function Points: FP = UFP × VAF = 578 × 1.07 = 618.46.
