Assume that the Kickstarter project you are interested in is a
publishing
project. Based on past data, you know that 9,391 out of
107,610
successfully funded projects were publishing projects. You also
know that
22,344 out of 191,853 unsuccessful projects were publishing
projects.
Earlier in the chapter, it was noted that the success probability
of new
Kickstarter projects was 36%. Using the same success probability
(36%)
and the information provided in this question, find the probability
of a
publishing project being successful.

The focus of chapter 14 is on the topic of Project Management as it relates to information technology projects. The key to any successful project is effective project management. The lack of good project management will likely lead to a series of setbacks such as cost overruns, time slippage, or poor technical performance among many other possibilities. Additionally, as the level of project complexity increases, the associated risk also becomes greater. Large enterprise projects are often complex and involve higher...
