Padding estimates
B. Planning horizon
C. Project structure
D. People
E. Organization culture

Padding estimates

Explanation:

Padding estimates is defined as process by which the budget for a project is inflated above what is really needed for the project. The estimate of funds for the project are overstated.

In this instance Janet forecasted that her department will need $25,000 and 2 people to support a new project.

Management usually cuts down the estimated figure by 20% and so she inflates the figure to ensure she gets her required funds after management approval.
