A Coveport project manager is calculating the PTA for a vendor contract. The values are: Ceiling Price = 1,250,000, Target Cost = 1,000,000, Target Fee = 100,000, and Buyer Share Ratio = 0.8. The PM's calculation results in 1,187,500.

What does this PTA value represent in terms of seller risk?

  1. The cost level where the seller's fee is exactly zero.
  2. The point where the project manager must escalate to the Change Control Board for more funding.
  3. The maximum amount the buyer will ever have to pay for the contracted work.
  4. The point beyond which the seller bears 100% of every additional dollar of cost.
