Correct Answer: B

Answer and Explanations:

Answer A: Incorrect. Estimated time is not actual or historical, therefore it is not the time it took to create the product increment.

Answer B: Correct. Cycle time is the amount of time something takes to go from the start of the process to the end of that process.

Answer C: Incorrect. Lead time refers to the amount of time elapsed between the identification of a requirement and its fulfillment and delivery to the customer.

Answer D: Incorrect. Ideal time is the amount of time that a process takes without any peripheral activities or interruptions.
