Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Step 1 — Compute Unadjusted Function Points (UFP) using standard average weights:
External Inputs: 50 × 4 = 200
External Outputs: 40 × 5 = 200
External Inquiries: 35 × 4 = 140
Internal Logical Files: 6 × 10 = 60
External Interface Files: 4 × 7 = 28
UFP = 200 + 200 + 140 + 60 + 28 = 628
Step 2 — Compute the Value Adjustment Factor (VAF) assuming average (rating 3) for each of the 14 general system characteristics:
Sum of ratings = 14 × 3 = 42
VAF = 0.65 + 0.01 × (Sum of ratings) = 0.65 + 0.01 × 42 = 1.07
Step 3 — Compute Adjusted Function Points:
Adjusted FP = UFP × VAF = 628 × 1.07 = 671.96 ≈ 672
Final answer: 672 function points.
