Which EVM metric represents the authorized budget assigned to scheduled work?
Answer: Planned Value (PV)
Planned Value (PV) is the authorized budget assigned to the work scheduled to be accomplished, also called the Budgeted Cost of Work Scheduled (BCWS).
A project has EV = $120,000 and AC = $150,000. What is the Cost Performance Index (CPI)?
Answer: 0.80
CPI = EV / AC = $120,000 / $150,000 = 0.80, meaning the project is getting only $0.80 of value for every $1.00 spent.
The Schedule Variance (SV) formula in Earned Value Management is:
Answer: EV - PV
Schedule Variance = EV minus PV; a negative SV means the project is behind schedule in cost terms.
Estimate at Completion (EAC) using the formula EAC = BAC / CPI assumes:
Answer: Future work will continue at the current cost efficiency rate
EAC = BAC / CPI assumes the cost performance experienced to date will continue for all remaining work.
Which EVM baseline combines scope, schedule, and cost and is used to measure project performance?
Answer: Performance Measurement Baseline (PMB)
The Performance Measurement Baseline (PMB) is the time-phased budget plan against which project performance is measured, integrating scope, schedule, and cost.
A To-Complete Performance Index (TCPI) greater than 1.0 indicates:
Answer: Future work must be performed more efficiently than past work to meet the target
TCPI > 1.0 means the remaining work must be accomplished more cost-efficiently than past work to achieve the target cost.
