D. The project is making faster progress and costing more than planned

A Cost Performance Index (CPI) of 0.89 means :

A. At this time, we expect the total project to cost 89 percent more than planned

You are in the project manager of a construction project that will take six months to complete and will cost \$75,000 / month. At the end of third month, you are asked to find out the cumulative SPI for the project. While reviewing, you found that you have spent \$80,000 in the first month, \$72,000 in the second month, and \$75,000 in the third month. And also found that project was 15% complete at the end of 1st month, 35 % complete at the end of 2nd month, 45 % complete at the end of 3rd month. If you planned to complete 50% of the work by this time, what is the cumulative SPI at the end of month three ?

A. 0.5

B. 0.9

C. 0.34

D. 1.1

One common way to compute estimate at completion (EAC) is to take the budget at completion (BAC) and :

A. Multiply by CPI

B. Divide by SPI

C. Multiply by SPI

D. Divide by CPI

If earned value (EV) = 350, actual cost (AC) = 400, planned value (PV) = 325, what is cost variance (CV) ?

A. 350

B. -75

C. 400

D. -50

At your project, EV = \$130,500 ; PV = \$125,000 ; and AC = \$129,000. Which one the following statement is true ?

A. The project is behind schedule and over budget

B. The project is ahead of schedule and under budget

C. The project is behind schedule and under budget

D. The project is ahead of schedule and over budget

Your recently took over a project another project manager who left the organization. You find out that the project has a BAC = \$45,000; PV = \$30,000; AC cumulative = \$25,000 ; cumulative EV = \$24,000. You decided to perform a forecasting analysis and calculated the values for EAC, ETC, and VAC. Which of the following is NOT true ?

A. You will need $21,875 more to complete this project

B. The project will cost $46,875

C. The project will be over budget by $1,875

D. The project will be under budget by $1,875

You asked one of your team member about the schedule variance (SV) for one of the key deliverables. He mentioned that he is behind the schedule but there would not be a cost variance. Which of the following is NOT true in this case ?

A. EV and PV were the same

B. EV and AC were the same

C. EV is less than PV

D. CPI is 1

Which one of the following is FALSE about TCPI ?

A. TCPI calculates the performance that must be achieved in order to meet financial or schedule goals.

B. TCPI usually determines the status on the remaining work with respect to the funds remaining.

C. If the cumulative CPI falls below the baseline plan, all future work must be performed at the TCPI to achieve the planned BAC

D. If the cumulative CPI falls below the baseline plan, all future work must be performed below the TCPI to achieve the planned BAC

A project manager involved in the Estimate Costs process in the early phase when a limited amount of detail was available. The range was \$75,000 to \$200,000, and actual cost come to be around \$150,000. What would you call such an estimate ?

A. A variable estimate

B. A definitive estimate

C. An order of magnitude estimate

D. A budget estimate
