Note:-
1) Planned Value:- Planned value (PV) is the authorized budget
assigned to scheduled work. It is the authorized budget planned
for the work to be accomplished for an activity or work
breakdown structure (WBS) component, not including
management reserve.
2) Earned Value:- Earned value (EV) is a measure of work performed
expressed in terms of the budget authorized for that work.
3) Actual cost:- Actual cost is the realized cost incurred for the work
performed on an activity during a specific time period.

Note: - If schedule variance negative that means the less work is

completed than planned so your project is behind schedule. If
schedule variance is positive that means more work is
completed than planned so your project is ahead of schedule
and if schedule variance is zero so your project is right on
schedule.

Note: - SPI stands Schedule Performance Index, measures how close the project is
to planned completion to date. SPI is calculated as
SPI = EV/PV
If SPI is greater than one, the project is progressing well versus the schedule. if SPI
is equal to one, the project is on schedule as planned. If SPI is less than one, the
project is behind schedule.
CPI stands for Cost Performance Index; it is the measure of conformance of the
actual work completed (measured by its earned value) to the actual cost incurred.
CPI is calculated as
CPI = EV/AC
When CPI is greater than one, this indicates better-than-planned project
performance. When CPI is less than one, that indicates poorer-than-planned
project performance and when CPI is equal to one, it indicates performance is on
target.
Budget at Completion (BAC)
BAC = sum of all 100% planned values.
BAC = 75,800 Rs
This will be the amount that was supposed to complete our project on schedule.
Estimate at Completion (EAC)
EAC = sum of all actual cost + bottom up ETC (Estimate to Completion)
Sum of All Actual Cost = 45,100

Note: - In Estimate to completion we suppose the actual cost

that would be required to accomplish remaining the work, this
ETC will be known as bottom up because it will eventually be
added to original actual cost to formulate estimate at
completion (EAC).
EAC = sum of all actual cost + bottom up ETC (Estimate to Completion)
Sum of All Actual Cost = 45,100
Sum of All ETC = 35,800
 EAC = 45,100 + 35,800 = 80,900
 EAC – BAC = 80900 – 75800 = 5100 Rupees
Note:- 5100 more Rupees would be used to complete our Final
year Project on Path Planning of the Autonomous Electric
Vehicle.
Note:- Our Final Year Project(FYP) is still in progress and still
this far we have left with some work to do, so we took the help
of ETC(Estimate to Completion) to find the Estimate at
Completion(EAC).
Trend Analysis
1) Planned Value:-
2) Earned Value:-

3)Actual Cost:-
4)Budget at Completion(BAC):-

5)Estimate at Completion(EAC):-
Conclusion:-
In this Assignment, we analyzed our Final Year Project for the Cost
Management Plan. We computed all the values including Planned
Values, Earned Values, Actual Costs , Budget at Completion(BAC),
Estimation at Completion(EAC), Estimate to Completion(ETC) and
the Budget offset which in our case comes to be 5100 Rupees.
