Planned Cost of planned work / Budgeted cost of work Scheduled (BCWS) / Planned Value (PV) 500
Planned cost of actual work / Budgeted cost of work performed (BCWP) / EARNED VALUE (EV) 400
Actual cost of actual work / Actual cost of work performed (ACWP) / Actual cost (AC) 600
CPI=.67
SPi = .8
SPI = .8 (80/100 or 80 dollars worth of work completed when we should have completed 100 dollars
worth of work ; in other words we are running behind by 20%)
CPI = .67 (67/100 or 67 dollars worth of work completed by spending 100 dollars hence we are
overbudget by 33$ or 50% of the original budget ie 67)
If you want to find the % overbudget use 1/CPI and the decimal digits will represent % over run in cost)
