A project manager finds that the Planned Value is $75,000 while the Earned Value is $60,000. Which conclusion is correct?

Question

Accepted Answer

SV = -$15,000, the project is behind schedule. SV = EV − PV = 60,000 − 75,000 = −$15,000. A negative SV means the project is behind schedule, so A is correct. Option B reverses the subtraction order and sign; option C has the right number but wrongly interprets a negative value as ahead; option D adds the values, which is not the SV formula.
