Explanation

The estimate to complete wants to know how much more money the project will need to complete its objectives. The estimate to complete (ETC) is the expected cost needed to complete all the remaining work for a scheduled activity, a group of activities, or the project. ETC helps project managers predict what the final cost of the project will be upon completion. The formula for the ETC is EAC- AC. The EAC is BAC/CPI. Answer option A is incorrect. This is the estimate at completion based on the current project Answer option C is incorrect. This is the current schedule variance. Answer option B is incorrect. 1.02 is the to-complete performance index based on the BAC.
