Allocate an AI portfolio budget after a funding cut.
Instruction: Show an allocation within the available budget, explain the consequences for each project and state which choices need approval.
A fictional organization has $120,000 available for the next quarter after a budget cut. All figures are future costs, and the options below are indivisible for this exercise. An existing production assistant needs $40,000 for required support and monitoring. Approved retirement of an unused prototype costs $10,000 for export, access removal, and record retention. A workflow-repair package costs $40,000 and would address documented failures affecting the existing assistant; benefits remain unmeasured. A new executive-demo project costs $50,000 and has no agreed business owner. A discovery study costs $20,000 and has a named sponsor. Previously approved new work may be deferred without a cancellation fee. Assume the listed work covers all available options and unused budget may be retained.
