The cost of ongoing operations when a disaster recovery plan is in place, compared to not having a disaster
recovery plan, will MOST likely:

A.
increase.

B.
decrease.

C.
remain the same.

D.
be unpredictable.

Explanation:
Due to the additional cost of disaster recovery planning (DRP) measures, the cost of normal operations for any
organization will always increase after a DRP implementation, i.e., the cost of normal operations during a
nondisaster period will be more than the cost of operations during a nondisaster period when no disaster
recovery plan was in place.
