Project Periodical Cost Graph/Graph
Usage
Use this tab to view graphically and compare the budget and the actual cost/revenue spread within
the project life span.
The following costs lines will be depicted:
- Cost: EAC Cumulative: The graph of the EAC costs spread in to future
accounting periods.
- Cost: Estimate At Completion (EAC): The total EAC for the selected forecast version.
- Cost: Budget At
Completion (BAC): The total budget value of the forecast version set as Active
Budget.
- Cost: Budget Cumulative: The graph of the budget costs spread in to each
accounting period.
- Cost: Incurred Cumulative: The graph shows the sum of the committed cost +
used cost incurred in each
accounting period up until the Cut-Off Period.
- Cost: Earned Value: The Budget * Progress for the accounting period. A
prerequisite for earned value to be shown is a forecast type with periodic
review.
Also the following revenue lines will be depicted:
- Revenue: EAC Cumulative: The graph of the EAC
revenue spread in to future
accounting periods.
- Revenue: Estimate At Completion (EAC): The total EAC for the selected forecast version.
- Revenue: Budget At Completion (BAC): The total budget value of the forecast version set as Active
Budget.
- Revenue: Budget Cumulative: The graph of the budget
revenue spread in to each
accounting period.
- Revenue: Incurred Cumulative: The graph shows the sum of the preliminary
revenue + posted revenue incurred in each
accounting period up until the Cut-Off Period.
In addition to the cost and revenue line graphs, the forecast cut-off period will also be displayed.
If Live View snapshot functionality is used the
incurred costs/revenue cannot be spread into specific periods. The cumulative incurred
cost/revenue in this case will be plotted on the cut-off period line.
