b) Analyze the following requirement as given in Case Study 1. "Postal Sender will receive the auto generated status messageotification as SMS from Postal Registrar and the same message is also displayed on his/her portal about the loss of goods (Type, Post ID, Date of loss) and claimable amount from post office." Quantify the Function Points associated to this requirement using IFPUG Albrecht method. Make sure to clearly identify Type of Requirement (2 marks), Number of Objects (2 marks), Number of Attributes (2 marks), Complexity level (2 marks) and lastly Function Points (2 marks) (10 marks) You can utilize the following tables for your estimates.
