  4. What is formula for CV (Cost Variance)

    • - CV < 0 means the task is over budget
    • - identifies the area where spending more than budgeted
    • - difference between worth and cost of completed work
  5. What is formula for CPI (Cost Performance Index)

    • - CPI < 1.0 means that the task is over budget
    • - ratio of worth to cost
    • - measure of cost-efficiency or efficiency of the budget
