Committing to a date

Monte Carlo analysis shows a 50% chance of finishing by 14 June and an 80% chance by 2 July. The deterministic plan says 1 June. The sponsor asks for a date to tell customers. What should you recommend?

A.Commit to 1 June because it is the official planB.Commit externally to a date near the 80% level, such as 2 July, and explain that 1 June has a low chance of being metC.Commit to 14 June because it is the most likely dateD.Average the three dates and commit to around 15 June
