Which of the following formulas should be used to calculate the project estimate at complete when the current variances are seen as typical and can be expected to be seen for future variances?




  1. EAC = AC C + (BAC – EV C) / CPI C

  2. ETC = BAC – EV C

  3. ETC = (BAC – EVC) / CPI C

  4. d) EAC = AC C + BAC – EV C



Answer = A. EAC or Estimate at Completion is calculated by adding two factors: the actual costs to date and the budget required to complete the remaining work. (The budget required to complete is the BAC or Budget at Complete minus the Earned Value modified by a performance factor, the CPI or cost performance index)

Tip of the day:
Establish an environment where reporting bad news in a timely manner is encouraged rather than an environment where fear prevents the flow of critical information.
