What are the components of the WBS?

Control accounts and work packages
Project objectives and deliverables
Stakeholder list and communication plan
Risk register and issue log

The correct answer is: Control accounts and work packages

A WBS (Work Breakdown Structure) consists of two main components control accounts and work packages. Control accounts are used to manage a group of related work packages and are often used for budget tracking and project control. The work packages are the smallest level of detail in a WBS and represent a specific task or deliverable. The other options are incorrect because they do not directly relate to the components of a WBS. Project objectives and deliverables are more broad and high-level concepts, while a stakeholder list and communication plan are important project management tools but not part of a WBS. The risk register and issue log are also important project management tools, but they serve a different purpose than the WBS components.
