C. Respect stakeholder expectations that Scrum Teams will meet their forecast.
D. Respect the Product Owner by letting them change the Sprint Goal during the Sprint.

Which two options describe how project budgeting and financial forecasting work in Scrum?
(choose the best two answers)
A. It’s ideally revisited as frequently as each Sprint to ensure value is being delivered for the investment spent.
B. Several Sprints may be funded as a single release, with the result of each Sprint being releasable software.
C. The only funding is for the run cost (time and materials) of the Scrum Teams, so no budgeting process is needed.

You are the Scrum Master for four teams working from the same Product Backlog. Several of the Developers come to you complaining that work identified for the upcoming two Sprints will require full time commitment from Stella, an external specialist who is not a member of any of the four Scrum Teams. What would you consider acceptable solutions for the problem?
(choose the best three answers)
A. Merge the Scrum Teams into one large Scrum Team for the next two Sprints. When the need for Stella’s expertise is over, the teams can separate again.
B. Investigate whether additional techniques or frameworks for scaling Scrum would be appropriate for these Scrum Teams.
C. Developers with an interest in Stella’s domain could volunteer to take on this work in their respective Scrum Teams.
D. Ask Stella for a plan to hire and train additional people in her domain, and in the meantime work with the Product Owner and Scrum Teams to re-prioritize the work so that tasks not depending on Stella can be done first.
E. Have the Developers re-order the Product Backlog so Stella can serve one team full-time in a Sprint.
F. Create a team with Stella and identify people from the Scrum Teams to temporarily work in Stella’s domain to learn to better serve the existing teams.
G. Organize a release Sprint in which Stella can thoroughly check and complete all the work done in her domain before considering the work releasable.

Your Scrum Team has been working together for over a dozen Sprints. The Scrum Team consists of 10 members. Each Sprint takes four weeks. As a Scrum Master, you observe that the Developers are hardly collaborating; during the Sprint, members are working on their own items. You also notice that the items on the Sprint Backlog are mostly unrelated. You suspect that the lack of a Sprint Goal might be the cause.
Although you have encouraged the use of a Sprint Goal, both the Product Owner and the Developers have concluded that they are unable to create Sprint Goals based on the wide variety of items on their Product Backlog.
What can explain why this Scrum Team is struggling to craft a Sprint Goal?
(choose all that apply)
A. The Sprints are too long.
B. The Product Owner does not have the mandate to make decisions about items on the Product Backlog nor their ordering.
C. The Product Owner is not communicating the Product Goals that they want to achieve in upcoming Sprints.
D. Scrum might not be the best framework for the work done by this team.
E. The Scrum Team is too big.

What are two signs that a Scrum Team is self-managing?
(choose the best two answers)
A. Management understands the team’s daily tasks at all times.
B. Creativity flourishes and new possibilities are explored.
C. The Developers always knows the status of the assigned work needed to deliver the tasks committed in the Sprint Plan.
D. The Scrum Team can resolve conflicts and continue working.

The Developer’s Daily Scrum is scheduled to start at 10:00 each day. Team members turn up late, and once everyone is assembled, the Daily Scrum starts. By then it is typically 4 to 5 minutes for people to transport within the building.
Some developers complain that it’s now hard to achieve the purpose of the Daily Scrum within the time-box, since there’s only 10 or 11 minutes left after waiting for people to show up. The Developers don’t know what to do, and ask for your advice. What are the two best options for you to do as a Scrum Master of this Scrum Team?
(choose the best two answers)
A. You turn the question back to the Developers and ask what they think should be done to ensure their Daily Scrum is effective and meets its purpose.
B. You suggest an experiment: moving the event to a time that better suits the Developers.
C. You suggest that when someone shows up late they cannot join that day’s Daily Scrum.
D. You escalate this issue to management because you are responsible for ensuring Scrum is understood and enacted.
E. To incentivize showing up on time, you tell the Developers that when people come late to the Daily Scrum, they will pay a small fee. Towards the end of the Sprint, you show the statistics and the person with the worst score gets to go and buy the treat for the Sprint Review.
