Abbreviatio Name Definition Usage Formula Explanation
n
PV Plan value The budget The value of
allocated for work work planned to planned be completed by a certain time
EV Earned The portion The value of EV = Total
value of work the work planned performed completed at value of measured by a point in completed the budget time work expended
AC Actual cost The actual The actual
cost cost of incurred to completed complete work up to a work point in time
BAC Budget at Total budget Total
completion set for planned cost completing to complete all work the project
DAC Duration at Original
completion planned time to complete the project
CV Cost Difference Indicates CV = EV - AC Positive =
variance between how much Under earned value under or budget, Zero and actual over budget = On budget, cost the project is Negative = Over budget SV Schedule Difference Indicates SV = EV - PV Positive = variance between how much Ahead of earned value ahead or schedule, and planned behind Zero = On value schedule the schedule, project is Negative = Behind schedule
completion budget the budget EAC Under variance at deficit or budget, Zero completion surplus at = On budget, project Negative = completion Over budget
CPI Cost Measure of CPI = EV / CPI > 1 =
performance cost AC Under index efficiency budget, CPI = 1 = On budget, CPI < 1 = Over budget
SPI Schedule Measure of SPI = EV / SPI > 1 =
performance schedule PV Ahead of index efficiency schedule, SPI = 1 = On schedule, SPI < 1 = Behind schedule
EAC Estimate at Forecasted The EAC = BAC /
completion total cost at projected CPI completion total cost considering performance to date
EDAC Estimate Forecasted The EDAC =
duration at total projected DAC / SPI completion duration at total completion duration considering schedule performance
ETC Estimate to Cost to Estimated ETC = EAC -
complete complete cost to AC remaining complete work remaining tasks
