Explanation
Budget Variability is a quantitative investment analysis tool used to assess how changes in the portfolio composition - adding, removing, or modifying components - affect the overall portfolio budget. It specifically measures the financial impact of portfolio changes, making it the tool that 'determines the effect of changing the portfolio.' Market Payoff Variability (B) relates to market-driven return fluctuations. Performance Variability (C) tracks deviations in component performance metrics. Trade-Off Analysis (D) compares competing options but does not specifically measure the effect of portfolio changes on the budget. Budget Variability is the PMI-identified tool for quantifying the portfolio-level budget impact of change decisions.
