C) Rule of thumb D) Fixed Rate
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Analogous

Answer C is incorrect, although close; if the development project is a common item, such as putting down new flooring, a rule -of-thumb measurement can be used, although it is less accurate. Answer D is incorrect because it is not a form of estimating, but a type of pricing.
