Although it is extremely difficult to make accurate forecasts of the revenues that a project will generate, projects' initial outlays and subsequent costs can be forecasted with great accuracy. This is especially true for large product development projects. a. True b. False

False

Explanation:

Forecasting Costs and Initial outlays are generally just as hard to predict as Revenue Forecasts. The future is hard to predict and does not differentiate between Costs and Revenues and in the case of Larger Projects, it is EVEN HARDER to forecast costs as their costs could widely deviate from initial estimates once they begin.

Take for example large scale government projects with the Berlin Brandenburg airport being a shinning example. It was supposed to open in 2012 but has still not opened till today and is billions of Euros off the initial cost projection.
