Earned value indicators that are variances or ratios can help you determine if there is enough money left in the budget and if the project will finish on time.

Earned Value Little Story
EV = $50
CV = $50 – $100 = -$50
CPI = $50 / $100 = 0.5
SV = $50 – $70 = -$25
SPI = $50 / $75 = 0.67

Laith – this is a nice and simple scenario for the initial ‘Earned Value’ discussion. Nice job. MPUG/Laith – there is a update on the SV calculation… It should be SV = $50 – $75 = -$25.
You had ‘$70’ for BCWS — SV = $50 – $70 = -$25
Great job. I’ll be referencing this article in the future.
