Explanation
The estimate at completion can be calculated by dividing the budget at completion by the cost performance index. Here, = (0.40*2,208,456)/725000 = 2,208,456/1.21846 What is Estimate at Completion (EAC)? Estimate at Completion (EAC) is a field that displays the final cost of the project including the actual costs and the forecast of remaining costs based on the cost performance index (CPI) so far. The formula used to calculate this estimate is as follows: ACWP+(BAC-BCWP)/CPI
