Cost Forecasts
Change Requests - 4What are the four estimating tools & techniques for Estimate Costs?Analogous Estimating
Parametric Estimating
Three-Point Estimating
Bottom-up Estimating - 5Cost Estimates. Are estimates for what?Quantitative assessment of the likely cost of resources required to complete an activity.
- 6What does the scope baseline comprise of?Project Scope Statement
WBS
WBS Dictionary - 7What 3 documents from the Project Management Plan are inputs to Estimate Costs?Cost Management Plan
Quality Management Plan
Scope Baseline - 8What are the project schedule and resource requirements examples of?Project Documents
- 9What are brief examples of: Analogous Estimating Parametric Estimating Three-Point Estimating Bottom-up EstimatingAE - It cost £6000 and took 4 months so therefore we predict this project will be x
Parametric - based on calculations. Dad square foot of area
3-point - Most likely, optimistic, pessimistic
BuE - rolling up from bottom (work packages up) very accurate - 10What does Reserve Analysis analyse?Contingency Reserves/Allowances - included in the budget within the cost baseline, that is allocated for identified risks (known unknowns)
- 11Where would you find the Management Reserves?Cost Estimates
- 12What is Basis of Estimates?Exactly what it says. The basis of how you reached your estimate. What was factored in.
- 13What is Determine Budget?Process to aggregate the estimated costs of individual activities and work packages to establish an AUTHORISED cost baseline.
- 14What DOESN'T the Cost Baseline include?Management Reserves
- 15When an amount of Management Reserve has been used for unforeseen work, where is the amount of Management Reserve used added to and how?It's added to the Cost Baseline via an approved change request
- 16What is Control Costs?Process of monitoring the status of the project to update the project costs and managing changes to the cost baseline
- 17What are the 4 types of Resource Requirements Costs? Give examples.Direct Costs - Travel, materials
Indirect Costs - MS Project (shared licence)
Variable Costs - Materials, no. of people
Fixed Costs - Rented equipment - 18What are these for: Management Reserves Contingency ReservesMR: Unkown unkowns
CR: Known unknowns - 19What are the 3 components of a Three Point Estimate?Optimistic
Most Likely
Pessimistic - 20What is the formula for three-point estimating?Optimistic + Most Likely + Pessimistic /3
- 21What does PERT stand for?P rogramme
E valuation
R eview
T echnique - 22What is the formula for PERT?O + 4 x ML + P /6
- 23What helps determine when the project might need cash?Cost Baseline
- 24What does TCPI stand for?To-complete Performance Index
- 25What is the best way for Measuring Project Performance?Earned Value Management (EVM)
- 26What is EVM?A suite of formulas to forecast project performance and to show current project performance
- 27What does BAC stand for?Budget At Completion
- 28What is the formula for EV?% complete x Budget at completion (BAC)
- 29What is the formula for PV?% planned x Budget at completion
- 30What is EV? (not the formula)Earned Value - how much the project is worth right now
- 31What is PV? (not the formula)Planned Value - how much the project is supposed to be worth right now
- 32What is the cost variance formula?EV-AC = Cost Variance
- 33What is the schedule variance formula?EV-PV = Schedule Variance
- 34What is 'something' divided by 'something' also referred to as?Indexes
- 35What is the formula for Cost Performance?EV / AC
- 36What is the formula for Schedule Performance?EV / PV
- 37The closer you are to 1, means what in terms of Performance Indexes?The better you're doing
- 38What is the formula for Estimate at Completion? (EAC)BAC / CPI
- 39What is the formula for Estimate to Completion? (ETC)EAC - AC
- 40If we are spending more than we should or behind in our schedule, what does this mean to the performance indexes?They are getting further away from 1, both sides of the number.
Less than means you can still achieve
More than means you're likely to not achieve - 41What are the two TCPI formulas?To-complete Performance Index
(BAC-EV / BAC-AC) Budget at Completion
(BAC-EV / EAC-AC) Estimate at Completion - 42What does Cost Variance show?EV - AC
Shows how much you've spent against the Earned Value - 43What do general terms like these refer to? Schedule Value CostSchedule: means planned
Value: worth
Cost: Spent - 44What is needed for the formulas, before you can do Estimate at Completion and Estimate to Complete sums ?Indexes for Cost + Schedule
- 45What comes first ETC or EAC?You need the results of EAC to work out the ETC
- 46What is the Cost Baseline also known as?Budget at Completion
