C. C. inadequate authorizations.Explanation
Feasibility method
A comprehensive plan that addresses all taskings, requirements, and mission objectives should be
feasible in terms of unit resource authorizations for manpower, equipment, airframes, etc. Problem
areas or limitations due to inadequate authorizations are feasibility problems or limitations. Normally,
these types of problems require higher headquarters assistance or action.Rate this question:

15. (004) Capability assessments identify problems due to
- A.
A. onhand assets.
- B.
B. nonavailability of assets.
- C.
C. inadequate authorizations.
- D.
D. a unit’s mission capability.
Correct Answer
B. B. nonavailability of assets.Explanation
Capability method
On the other hand, well-written plans that are feasible (relating to authorizations), but cannot be
supported due to the nonavailability of assets, are capability problems or limitations. These types of
problems have a greater potential for unit-level resolution. The logistics plans office develops
logistics portions of feasibility and capability studies.Rate this question:

C. C. Higher headquarters.Explanation
A comprehensive plan that addresses all taskings, requirements, and mission objectives should be
feasible in terms of unit resource authorizations for manpower, equipment, airframes, etc. Problem

facilities, malpositioned forces or materiel, and extreme climatic conditions.Rate this question:
-
- 18.
18. (004) As a unit’s biggest responsibility, when should they identify shortfalls and limiting factors(LIMFACs)?
- A.
A. Annually.
- B.
B. Quarterly.
- C.
C. As soon as they are known.
- D.
D. When the information is requested.
Correct Answer
C. C. As soon as they are known.Explanation
Unit responsibilities
Obviously, the biggest responsibility is for a unit to identify its shortfalls and LIMFACs as soon as
they are known. A thorough description of the problem is a must. The unit should also tell what
actions they have taken to correct the problem, any workarounds, and if there is a get-well date for the
problem.Rate this question:
-
- 19.
19. (004) A deficiency in the number or type of personnel, equipment, or facilities available is
- A.
A. a temporary problem.
- B.
B. a limitation.
- C.
C. a shortfall.
- D.
D. a limiting factor (LIMFAC).
Correct Answer
C. C. a shortfall.Explanation
Shortfalls
A shortfall is a deficiency in the number or type of personnel, equipment, or facilities available within
the time required for the performance of the assigned task. Shortfalls are the difference between
resources identified as required and those actually provided to the combatant commander. Remember
that shortfalls deal with on-hand assets, not resource authorizations.Rate this question:
-
- 20.
20. (005) Resources and capabilities of a specific location are identified in
- A.
A. WMP–1, Basic Plan and Supporting Annexes.
- B.
B. WMP–2, Plans Listing and Summary.
- C.
C. Part I of the in-garrison expeditionary support plan (IGESP).
- D.
D. Part II of the IGESP.
Correct Answer
C. C. Part I of the in-garrison expeditionary support plan (IGESP).Explanation
Both the IGESP and the ESP have a standard format consisting of two parts. Part I identifies
resources and capabilities of a location by functional area and is the focus of the expeditionary site
survey. For contingency requirements, Part II of the plan allocates resources identified in Part I,
assesses the ability to support the operation, and identifies LIMFACs. It is through these plans that all
units operating out of the location become familiar with the existing resource allocations and key
tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs).Rate this question:
-

- B.
B. Part II of the IGESP.
- C.
C. Annex D of a plan.
- D.
D. Expeditionary Site Plans (ESPs).
Correct Answer
B. B. Part II of the IGESP.Explanation
Both the IGESP and the ESP have a standard format consisting of two parts. Part I identifies
resources and capabilities of a location by functional area and is the focus of the expeditionary site
survey. For contingency requirements, Part II of the plan allocates resources identified in Part I,
assesses the ability to support the operation, and identifies LIMFACs. It is through these plans that all
units operating out of the location become familiar with the existing resource allocations and key
tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs).Rate this question:

- 22.
22. (005) In-garrison expeditionary support plans (IGESPs) are primarily developed for
- A.
A. possible war locations.
- B.
B. locations with a permanent Air Force presence.
- C.
C. locations without a permanent Air Force presence.
- D.
D. any US military installation.
Correct Answer
C. C. locations without a permanent Air Force presence.Explanation
The expeditionary site planning process produces an IGESP, formerly known as the BSP and an ESP.
IGESPs are primarily developed for locations with a permanent Air Force presence, and are fully
developed by the collaborative planning efforts of many functional experts with a deliberate planning
time line. ESPs are chiefly associated with locations without a permanent Air Force presence and may
contain only the minimum data necessary to make initial beddown decisions (quick reaction site
survey information in Part I).Rate this question:

replacement in kind (RIK), which is a one for one swap, payment in cash (PIC), or equal value
exchange (EVE), which is replacing an item or service with a different item or service of relatively
equal value.Rate this question:

the Support Agreement Manager) will assign IA numbers for specific IAs using the codes outlined in
AFI 25–301, Attachment 3.Rate this question:

- B.
B. Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff (CJCS).
- C.
C. Service Chiefs.
- D.

replace existing authority or agreements, but offer a flexible means to exchange support in emergency
situations where no authority exists or existing authority does not apply. There are restrictions on the
types of support US forces can provide under ACSA. In addition, unified commands, i.e.
USCENTCOM, USEUCOM, etc. may place additional restrictions or requirements on the use of
ACSAs during operations.Rate this question:
