a.) CPI=EV/AC

  • CPI = Cost Performance Index
  • EV = Earned Value (dollars, euros, etc.)
  • AC = Actual Cost (dollars, euros, etc.)

The Cost Performance Index represents the relative amount that the task is over or under budget. As a ratio it is calculated by dividing the budgeted cost of work completed, or earned value, by the actual cost of the work performed.The cost performance index (CPI) is a measure of the financial effectiveness and efficiency of a project. It represents the amount of completed work for every unit of cost spent.

b.)

The Schedule Performance Index (SPI) is a measure of schedule efficiency, expressed as the ratio of earned value to planned value.The schedule performance index (SPI) is a measure of how close the project is to being completed compared to the schedule.As a ratio it is calculated by dividing the budgeted cost of work performed, or earned value, by the planned value.

Schedule Performance Index = (Earned Value) / (Planned Value)

SPI= EV / PV

c.)

Estimate at Completion is the total cost of the project at the end, while the Estimate to Complete is the cost required to complete the remaining work.The expected total cost of completing all work expressed as the sum of the actual cost to date and the estimate to complete.

Estimate at Completion = (Budget at Completion) / (Cost Performance Index)

Or,

EAC = BAC / CPI
