Step by step
Solved in 2 steps
- 1. You have just started a project for a manufacturer. Project team members report they are 30 percent complete with the project. You have spent $25,000 out of the project's $250,000 budget. What is the earned value for this project? 2.You are the project manager of the Carpet Installation Project for a new building. Your BAC is $600,000. You are now 40 percent complete with the project, though your plan called for you to be 45 percent complete with the work by this time. What is your earned value?You have a project to be completed in 12 months, and the total cost of the project is 100,000 USD. Six months have passed and 60,000 USD has been spent, but on closer review you find that only 40% of the work has been completed so far. Your project is expected to perform with the same cost performance. Find the Estimate to Complete (ETC) and EAC for this project.You’re managing a project with a schedule performance index (SPI) of 1.07and a cost performance index (CPI) of 0.94. How would you BEST describethis project?A. The project is ahead of schedule and within its budgetB. The project is behind schedule and within its budgetC. The project is ahead of its schedule and over its budgetD. The project is behind schedule and over its budget Which of the following is the BEST example of a reward system?A. Everyone will get a bonus of $500 if the project meets its quality goals, $500 if itmeets its budget goals, and $600 if it comes in on time.B. The team member who works the hardest will receive $1000C. The five team members who put in the most hours will get a trip to DisneylandD. The team will only get a bonus if the project comes in 50% under budget, scheduleand quality metric goals. Even though the team leads know this goal is unrealistic,they agree that it will motivate the team to work harder”
- Your vice president asked you what the Estimate at Completion (EAC) will be for a small project you are working on. You were given a budget of S50,000, and to date you have spent $40,000 but only completed $30,000 worth of work. You are sure the future work will be accomplished at the planned rate. What is the EAC ?Calculate the cost budget for the project below with a contingency reserve of 20% is applied to the cost estimate and 4% management reserve is applied to the cost baseline. Control Account Cost /$ Project Management 1,000,000 Design 4,000,000 Execution 10,200,000 Certification 600,000 Marketing 4,500,000 Launch 320,000 You have a budget at completion of $2500. You had planned to have $2200 worth of work accomplished by now. However, you have just found out that you are only 60% complete with the task. What is your SV? A project was budgeted at $1,000,000. Meanwhile, the project is executed, and the following current figures have been assessed: PV: $500,000 EV: $450, 000 AC: $550, 000 Assuming that the cost variance was…The Budget at Completion (BAC) is the sum of all budgeted values established for the work to be performed on a project. As such it is equivalent to: Select one: a. the total planned value of the project. b. the total earned value of the project. c. the total actual cost of the project. d. the total value of the work completed to date
- Highway ProjectThe Department of Highways in South Carolina was exploring ways to reduce the road construction costs and developed new contracting processes to allow the road builders to bring new ideas for cutting costs. On one project, the contractor proposed cost-cutting ideas throughout the life of the project. At each phase, the client accepted many of the ideas and then revised the budget. The client promoted the revised cost target of the project as an example of the success of the new process. By the end of the project, the final cost was less than 1 percent over the newest target. Although the total cost of the project was almost 10 percent less than the original cost projections and contract obligations, the success of the project was connected to the new expectations that developed during the life of the project. Even though this project performance exceeded the original goal, the client was disappointed. Biotech ProjectA biotechnology company developed a new drug that…Mueller & Associates is a urban planning firm that is designing a new public park in an Omaha suburb. Coordination of the architect and subcontractors will require a major effort to meet the 45-week completion date requested by the owner. The Mueller project manager prepared the following project network. Start A B F H 0 D E Finish Estimates of the optimistic, most probable, and pessimistic times (in weeks) for the activities are as follows. Activity Optimistic Most Probable A 4 8 Pessimistic 12 B 6 7 8 C 6 12 18 D 3 5 7 E 6 9 18 F 5 8 17 G 10 15 20 H 5 6 13You have been assigned to be a member of a project review team to determine the “health” of project # WINGS3, and you will have to tell the division manager whether or not you predict that the project will be done according to the plan. The project manager gave you the following data about her program: BAC = 16,000; EAC = 17,500; AC = 13,250; EV = 10,000; Based on Earned Value metrics, what do you tell your manager? a. There are no problems, the project is great. b. The project is not on plan, but will finish on plan if they are about 11% more efficient. c. The Project is slightly behind, but should be able to finish on time. d. The Project is in serious trouble and plan on the infusion of additional funds to finish even close to on time. e. You cannot tell based on the metrics above. f. You have no idea what to say; they asked the wrong person.
- You are developing a performance progress report for a project you are managing.
