If this was a real exam, I'd give you a hard time for trying to smuggle in a gold pun. Nice try, but let's keep it professional, shall we?

Expanding the project scope to a more lucrative area makes sense.

Hmm, I'm not sure this is a challenge to the project investment. The risk manager is clearly proposing a change to the project scope, so I'd say option C is the best answer.

True, it could affect project earnings as well. But the main focus seems to be on changing the scope, so I still lean towards option C.

But wouldn't including Field 2 also impact project earnings? Maybe it's a request to increase project earnings, so option A could also be correct.

Wow, 80% increase in profitability? Sign me up! This has to be a request to increase project earnings. Option A is the way to go, no doubt about it.

I think the risk manager is challenging the stakeholder thresholds. Increasing the project's profitability by 80% is a significant change that could raise concerns among the stakeholders. Option C seems like the right answer here.

This is a clear-cut case of a request to increase project resources. By including Field 2, the company is expanding the scope of the project, which aligns with option B.
