probability and impact
What is a probability impact matrix?
Used to calculate the final risk score for each of the risks on your list.
The final risk score on the probability impact matrix is determined by multiplying ___________ by _______________.
probability x impact
The closer the risk score is to 1.0, the (more likely/less likely) the risk will occur and have a significant impact on the project.
more likely
