Functional-Points
Question 1 |
Consider a software project with the following information domain characteristic for calculation of function point metric.
-
Number of external inputs (I) = 30
Number of external output (O) = 60
Number of external inquiries (E) = 23
Number of files (F) = 08
Number of external interfaces (N) = 02
It is given that the complexity weighting factors for I, O, E, F and N are 4, 5, 4, 10 and 7, respectively. It is also given that, out of fourteen value adjustment factors that influence the development effort, four factors are not applicable, each of he other four factors have value 3, and each of the remaining factors have value 4. The computed value of function point metric is __________.

Question 2 |
A Software project was estimated at 864 Function Points. A six person team will be assigned to a project consisting of a requirement gathering person, one designer, two programmers and two testers. The salary of the designer is ₹70,000 per month, requirement gatherer is ₹50,000 per month, programmer is ₹60,000 per month and a tester is ₹60,000 per month. Average productivity for the team is 12 FP per person month. Which of the following represents the projected cost of the project?
₹33,20,000 | |
₹43,20,000 | |
₹33,10,000 | |
₹22,10,000

Question 2 Explanation:
Given data,
-- Functional Point(FP)=864
-- Team=6 persons
-- Average each person(FP) productivity=12
-- Designer month salary=70,000
-- Programmers month salary=2*60,000
-- Tester month salary=2*60,000
-- Requirement gatherer=50,000
-- projected cost of project=?
Step-1: Total number of months=Functional Point(FP) / (Team* Average each person(FP) productivity)
= 864 / (6*12)
= 864 / 72
= 12 months
Step-2: Total cost of the project= (one Designer month salary + 2*Programmers month salary + 2*tester month salary + one Requirement gatherer) * Total number of months
= (70000 + 2 * 60000 + 2*60000 + 50000) * 12
= ₹ 43,20,000
-- Team=6 persons
-- Average each person(FP) productivity=12
-- Designer month salary=70,000
-- Programmers month salary=2*60,000
-- Tester month salary=2*60,000
-- Requirement gatherer=50,000
-- projected cost of project=?
Step-1: Total number of months=Functional Point(FP) / (Team* Average each person(FP) productivity)
= 864 / (6*12)
= 864 / 72
= 12 months
Step-2: Total cost of the project= (one Designer month salary + 2*Programmers month salary + 2*tester month salary + one Requirement gatherer) * Total number of months
= (70000 + 2 * 60000 + 2*60000 + 50000) * 12
= ₹ 43,20,000
