EAC
Estimate at Completion
A comparison of amount of work performed during a given period of time to
what was scheduled to be performed.
Negative = behind schedule
Neutral = on schedule
Positive = ahead of schedule
A comparison of the budgeted cost of work performed with actual cost.
Negative= over budget
Neutral = on budget
Positive= under budget
It measures the value of the work completed against actual cost.
CPI<1=over budget
CPI >1= under budget
CPI= 1= on budget
It represents the cumulative CPI of the project at the point the measurement
is taken.
It measures the progress to date against the planned progress.
SPI<1 = behind schedule
SPI > 1= ahead of schedule
SPI = 1 = on schedule
It represents the cumulative SPI of the project at the point the measurement
is taken.
How much did we BUDGET for the TOTAL project effort?
If CPI is expected to be the same
EAC= BAC/CPI
What do we currently expect the TOTAL project to cost?
If current variances are thought to be atypical of the future
EAC = AC+ (BAC-EV)
If both CPI and SPI influence the remaining work
EAC = AC+[ (BAC-EV)/ (CPI x SPI)]

From this point on, how much MORE do we expect it to cost to finish the
project?
How much over or under budget do we expect to be at the end of the
project?
Performance that must be achieved in order to meet financial or schedule
goals.

You have a project to build a new fence. The fence is four sided as shown.
Each side is to take one day to build and is budgeted for #1000 per side. The
sides are planned to be completed one after another. Today is the end of day
three. Using the project status chart below calculate the formulas.

Each side is to take one day to build and is budgeted for $1000 per side. The
sides are planned to be completed one after another. Today is the end of day
three. In this case, assume that the sides have a finish-to-finish relationship
instead of a finish-to-start relationship.

Your project is running well. In the latest earned value report, you see the
CPI=1.2, the SPI= 0.8, the PV= $600,000 and the SV = -$120,000. You can’t
find the CV in the report, so you calculate it based on the info given. What is
the CV?
