Explanation
A performance report is needed to communicate the variance between planned work and actual work. A performance report is made by the project team detailing activities, milestones, problems, accomplishments, and identified issues. Performance reports are used to report some key information as follows: Current status Scheduled activities Significant accomplishment for the period Forecasts Issues Answer option A is incorrect. An issue report is not the best answer for this scenario. Issues are recorded in the issue log and an issue owner is assigned. Answer option B is incorrect. An exceptions report is a tempting answer as this is an exception to the project. PMI does not use this terminology. Answer option C is incorrect. Variance analysis is the activity of reviewing the variance to determine why it exists.
