d- Ahead of schedule- Underbudget
Part B-
It is possible to have the scheduler report saying the project is behind schedule while the earned value analysis is showing a positive schedule variance.
TRUE or FALSE
Part C
EV is cost-based, so it is more reliable than CPM.
TRUE of FALSE
Ans 1 : D) Ahead of schedule- Underbudget
Ans 2 : False , It is not possible to have the scheduler report saying the project is behind schedule while the earned value analysis is showing a positive schedule variance.
Ans 3 : True , Earned Value Analysis is cost-based, so it is more reliable than CPM.

to chapter 1. Given the following information for a one-year project, answer the following questions. Recall that PV is the planned value, EV is the earned value, AC is the actual cost, and BAC is the budget at completion. PV = $22,000 EV = $20,000 AC = $25,000 BAC = $120,000 a. What is the cost variance, schedule variance, cost performance index (CPI), and schedule performance index (SPI) for the project? b. How is the project doing? Is it ahead...

QUESTION 1 3.8 points Save Ans The cost management plan has all of the following characteristics EXCEPT It may specify variance thresholds for monitoring cost performance to indicate an agreed-upon amount of variation to be allowed before some action needs to be taken. It describes how the project costs will be planned, structured, and controlled. It is based on project cost estimates and is separate from the project management plan. It may specify the level of precision, which is the...
