What’s the best answer?
  • A ($68,017)
  • B 1.19

Reveal correct answer

Correct answer: D

Explanation

To calculate the estimate to complete (ETC), use the following formulas:

EV = .75 X 1,250,650 = $937,987.50

CPI = EV/AC = 937,987.50/989,000 = .94842

ETC = (BAC-EV)/CPI = (1,250,650 - 937,987.50)/.94842 = $329,667 (rounded)

The other answers are incorrect choices.
