PK0-005 Tools and Documentation Practice Question
A project is 60% complete. The original budget (BAC) is $200,000. Actual costs to date are $130,000, and the earned value is $120,000. What is the estimate at completion (EAC) if the project will continue to perform at the current cost efficiency?

Correct answer & explanation
✓
$216,667
Current CPI = EV/AC = 120,000/130,000 = 0.9231. EAC = BAC/CPI = 200,000 / 0.9231 ≈ $216,667. Alternatively, EAC = AC + (BAC - EV)/CPI = 130,000 + (80,000)/0.9231 ≈ $216,667.
