2/5 · Fix and Flex — the Hexagon
A Project Board is setting tolerances for a project that will use agile ways of working at delivery level. Which combination best reflects PRINCE2 Agile's recommended approach to tolerances across the hexagon?

3/5 · Fix and Flex — the Hexagon · hard
Which statement about tolerance on the benefits aspect of the hexagon in an agile context is most accurate?
ABenefits tolerance cannot be set because agile projects do not maintain a Business Case
BBenefits tolerance replaces the need for time and cost tolerances in agile projects
CBenefits tolerance is always fixed at zero because benefits are only realised after project closure
DBenefits tolerance is set by the Project Board and can be protected by prioritising delivery of the highest-value features first via MoSCoW

4/5 · Fix and Flex — the Hexagon
A delivery team is two days from the end of a fixed release time-box. It becomes clear that not everything originally planned can be finished without extending the time-box or increasing the budget. The requirements were previously prioritized with MoSCoW. What does PRINCE2 Agile recommend the team do?
ADeliver everything as originally planned by reducing the testing and quality checks applied to the 'must have' items
BReduce or drop the lowest-priority 'could have' items and, if still necessary, some 'should have' items, while ensuring all 'must have' requirements are still delivered to the agreed quality
CAsk the project board to extend the time-box slightly and increase the budget to cover the remaining work
DImmediately raise a formal exception to the project board, since any change to planned scope always requires re-baselining the project
