Answer A is correct. When program complies, SAS created PDV and column length of Job description is 2 as per assignment value in program. It wont change once PDV is defined.

no, given answer A is correct, because the length of the variable is defined as 2 with this line: JobCategory = 'FA'; The last line is redefining the value of the same variable (there is no new variable), but the length can not be changed and the new value FA1 is truncated and remains as FA.
