22. A bank is launching a new service directed to the new buyers' market where a customer can buy a house and request a loan from them in the same transaction. A process analyst needs to model: 1. how both processes are linked together, and 2. based on the loan grant status, whether the buying process completes or stops abruptly. Which of the following illustrates how the process analyst should model these requirements?

23. A company is expecting a 50% increase in volume through one of their business processes. The current state model of the business process has already been created and verified through simulation.
