Assignment Instructions
For this assignment, you will be calculating the expected monetary value (EMV) for each risk using the
information in the following chart:
Risk Register
Risk # Activity # Probabilit Cost Impact EMV
y
1 AA 25% $8,000 2000
2 BB 70% $3,800 2660
3 AA 15% -$3,000 -450
4 DD 60% $25,000 1500
5 DD 40% -$18,500 -7400
6 AA 65% -$6,000 -3900
7 BB 40% $7,500 3000
8 BB 35% $30,000 10500
9 CC 50% $45,000 22500
10 EE 45% -$28,750 12938
Type or write your answer in the EMV column. Once you have finished and recorded your calculations,
use the completed chart to answer the following questions.

Questions to Answer
2. The total sum of the EMV column represents the potential budget for the contingency reserve.
Add up all of your EMV calculations. What is the sum?
The total sum of the EMV column is $30,972
6. Some activities have both positive and negative risks identified. Add all risks for each activity.
This calculates the net EMV per activity. Which activity has the highest dollar value for positive
risks?
Activity CC has the highest dollar value for positive risks with a total EMV of $22,500.
7. Some activities have both positive and negative risks identified. Add all risks for each activity to
calculate the net EMV per activity. Which activity has the lowest dollar value for negative risks?
Activity AA has the lowest dollar value for negative risks with a total of -$2,350.
8. What is the net EMV for Activity DD? the net EMV for Activity DD is $7,600
9. There are three risks associated with Activity BB. Combine all three risks to determine the net
EMV, and interpret the meaning behind the calculation. Is the overall risk value as calculated
here positive or negative?
The overall risk value for Activity BB is positive,
10. Take a look at Activity EE. Calculate the net EMV, and interpret the meaning behind the
calculation. Is the overall risk value positive or negative?
The overall risk value for Activity EE is negative
11. Which risk has the highest EMV? (Note: This is should be based on the numerical value and
could be positive or negative.)
