     When memorizing the


formulas I have found
    
it best to look for
     patterns. When I see
the correct pattern I
     know the formula is
correct.
     AC = ACWP
PV = BCWS
     
EV = BCWP

     Äk lets build this.


First is to see the
    
pattern of 2
     subtractions, 3
divides, 2
     subtractions

    


     
    
|  
   

     vext see the pattern


of Variance and
    
Index.
     Cost, Schedule and
Cost, Schedule.
    
    
     
    
|  
   

     vext see the pattern


of Earned Value (EV).
    
This used to be
     BCWP.

    
    
     
    
|  
   

     vext see the pattern


of Actual Cost (AC)
    
and Planned Value
     (PV) and how they
alternate. Skip a line
     and its AC again.

     vext see the pattern


of Estimated at
    
Completion (EAC).
     As well as Budget at
Completion (BAC)

     vot much left. votice


that CPI is divisor of
    
EAC so find CPI skip
     a line and place it at
the end of EAC
     formula.

     ETC and VAC don¶t


really match to
      anything, you just
have to know where
    
they go.

     This may look


confusing but it
     worked great
     for me and I
have had
     others tell me it
worked for
     them as well.

ß Communication Channels: v(v )/2


ß Pert Mean: (Pessimistic + 4*Most Likely +
Äptimistic) / 6
ß Standard Deviation: (Pessimistic ± Äptimistic) / 6
ß Variance: ((Pessimistic ± Äptimistic) / 6) squared
ß Present Value or PV: Future Value / (+ rate of
return) to the power of n. Where n = periods of
time.
