Question: Given the project data below: table [ [ project , inputs,outputs,entity accesses,system users, table [ [ program - ] , [ ming ]

Given the project data below:
\table[[project,inputs,outputs,entity accesses,system users,\table[[program-],[ming],[language]],],[1,210,420,40,10,x,30],[2,469,1406,125,20,x,85],[3,513,1283,76,18,y,108],[4,660,2310,88,200,y,161],[5,183,367,35,10,z,22],[6,244,975,65,25,z,42],[7,1600,3200,237,25,y,308],[8,582,874,111,5,z,62],[x,180,350,40,20,y,],[Y,484,1190,69,35,y,]]
Note x and Y are new projects for which estimates of effort are needed.
A. What items are size drivers?
B. inputs, outputs, entity accesses (system users for certain aspects)- the more of these there are the larger the development job
C. What items are productivity drivers?
D. Programming language - the number of lines of code that can be produced in a day will depend, in part, on the programming language
E. What are the productivity rates for programming languages x,y and z?
F. What would be the estimated effort for projects x and Y using a Mark II function point count?
G. What would be the estimated effort for x and Y using an approximate analogy approach?
H. Project X seems closest to Project 5 which provides an estimate of 22 days, and Project Y seems to be closest to Project 3 which gives an estimate of 108 days
I. What would have been the best estimating method if the actual effort for x turns out to be 30 days and for Y turns out to be 120 days? Can you suggest why the results are as they are and how they might be improved.
