The problem described could have been avoided by ensuring that the business rules, such as the new rules for taxes and fees, were properly implemented and traced to the functional requirements. The best answer is: C. Using a table that shows each applicable business rule with the implemented functional requirement. This would ensure that all business rules are mapped to functional requirements, reducing the likelihood of missing critical rules like those for taxes and fees.

Selected Answer: A

A. Involving a business analyst during all phases of system development. The problem of the new rules for taxes and fees not being implemented in the new online product could have been avoided by involving a business analyst during all phases of system development. A business analyst is responsible for understanding the business needs and requirements and ensuring that they are reflected in the system design and implementation. They are also responsible for identifying potential issues and risks and providing solutions to mitigate them.
