1] PM's Bottom-up
EAC = AC + Bottom-up ETC
- When you want to forecast EAC based on the project manager's bottom-up ETC
2] Based on budgeted value
EAC = AC + BAC - EV
- When variances are not expected to occur for the remainder of the project, so the costs of future work are estimated to be the same as the budgeted costs
3] Based on the CPI
EAC = BAC ÷ cumulative CPI
- When you want to take the cost performance of a project into account, and assume its
current cost performance level won't change for the remainder of the project
4] Based on the SPI and CPI
EAC = AC + [[BAC - EV] ÷ [cumulative CPI x cumulative SPI]]
- When you want to take both the schedule and cost performance of the project into account, and the project schedule is a factor likely to impact the ETC.
