We are spending way less than we thought and have plenty leftOur budget was accurate and so we are aligned with the spend to this pointWe've spent a little more than we thought, but we will recover this soonIt's costing us a lot more than we thought so we will need more money soon
Comparing the projected product total cost at this point in time to what you estimated during your concept investigations with customers, is it:*

Costing less than we thoughts so our profit will be higherCosting almost exactly what we planned and so our profit will be what we thoughtCosting a little more than we had planned reducing our profit slightlyCosting a lot more than we thought so we will have to charge customers more to keep the same profit margin

This product version is completely defined, will not have additional features and we are collecting requirements for the next versionWe continue to get requests from sales people and customers and we consider each one before assessing how adding any new feature will affect out costs and timelinesOur customers are excited to ask us for new features that they want in the product and we add small ones to keep them happyOur product is generating a lot of interest and to make sure we deliver what everyone wants, we continue to add features as we go along, knowing we will sell more as a result
What is your team resource situation?*

We have just enough people on our team, and everyone is really busy concentrating on all of the tasks we all have to completeWe need more people but are waiting to bring them on until we can afford them within the budget we have setOur team is big enough than people are relaxed about the amount of work they each have to doWe've recruited all the people we need quickly to ensure we can get the product moving faster
How is essential information flowing around the company regarding the product?*

We have complete, managed documentation on all aspects of the product with regular meetings to discuss and report/document updates and changesThe whole team knows what's going on, but there's the odd occasion where something gets missedSome of our team always seem to be out of the loop, no matter how many times we tell them thingsWe run fast so we can get to profit faster, there are several experts who know the answers to questions anyone might have
