    I got this right, but I think the question should have been qualified with something like "on an instance installed with the default settings". Otherwise the answer should be "it depends on the value of the two digit year cutoff setting in sp_configure".

    You beat me to it. When I was reading the question, I was thinking it's not possible to made a determination of the output without knowing the settings. I had to use the default settings and hope for the best and did get it right.

    Also, to check the cutoff, I normally use SQL Server Management Studio, connect to the server, right click on the server name in the Object Explorer, then select Properties. A window pops up with several pages listed in the left-hand navigation bar. Select Advanced and you can see it defaults to 2049 as the cutoff. You can even change it from that window using the range 1753 to 9999.
