Why each option
Requirements verification is not an input to writing the business case because it is an output of a later requirements analysis process, occurring after requirements are defined.
Business need is a primary input because it defines the problem or opportunity that the business case is being written to address.
Assumptions and constraints are inputs because they bound the scope and inform the feasibility and cost analysis within the business case.
Requirements verification is the process of confirming that documented requirements meet defined quality standards, and it occurs after requirements elicitation and analysis - making it an output of those processes rather than an input to the business case. The business case is written during enterprise analysis to justify the investment, before requirements are fully developed and verified. Inputs to writing the business case include the business need, assumptions and constraints, required capabilities, and stakeholder concerns.
Stakeholder concerns are inputs because they surface organizational risks, impact areas, and acceptance considerations that must be addressed in the business case.
