Question: ability to influence the cost of a project

Question No : 145
You note that the ability to influence the cost of a project is:
Choice 1 Greatest at the early stages of the project
Choice 2 Greatest at the middle of the project
Choice 3 Greatest at the project closure stage
Choice 4 Constant throughout the project
Correct Choice : 1
I thought it is Choice 2.... why is it greatest at the early stages of the project?
Thank you all for the information.

Answer 1 makes more sence
Answer 1 makes more sence since during planning stage you are estimating the cost to develop the budget and hence you have the most impact there.
