Since you have asked a question with numerous sub parts, I will address first five. Please post the balance sub parts as separate question.

This is a fairly formula driven question. Let's address them one by one.

PV = $100,000 AC = $60,000 BAC = $125,000 ETC = $100,000

===================

If 75% of the Planned Value was completed to date, what is the Earned Value of the work completed (round to nearest whole number)?

EV = % complete x Planned Value = 75% x 100,000 = $75,000


====================

What is the Cost Variance (round to nearest whole number)?

Cost Variance, CV = Earned Value, EV – Actual Cost, AC = 75,000 - 60,000 = $15,000

================

What is the Schedule Variance (round to nearest whole number)?

Schedule Variance, SV = Earned Value, EV – Planned Value, PV = 75,000 - 100,000 = - $ 25,000

================
What is the Cost Performance Index (round to 2 decimals)?

Cost Performance Index, CPI = EV / AC = 75,000 / 60,000 = 1.25

===================
What is the Schedule Performance Index (round to 2 decimals)?

Schedule Performance Index, SPI = EV / PV = 75,000 / 100,000 = 0.75
