PK0-005 Project Life Cycle Practice Question

A project has a budget at completion (BAC) of $200,000. The actual cost (AC) is $80,000, earned value (EV) is $60,000, and planned value (PV) is $90,000. What is the estimate at completion (EAC) if the project will continue to perform at the same cost efficiency?
