earned value (ev)<\/h3>\n

earned value is a term that refers to the cost of the work that has been completed expressed\u00a0as the value of the performance budget assigned to that work. it’s not just the cost of the completing some work, it representing the value that has been earned by completing the work. this is commonly also referred to in the construction industry as the “budgeted cost of work performed,” or bcwp. earned value is calculated as the budget at completion multiplied by the percent of work completed.<\/p>\n

ev = bac x % complete<\/strong><\/h5>\n<\/div>\n

planned value (pv)<\/h3>\n

this term refers to the approved budget for work that is scheduled to be completed by a certain date in the future. whereas earned value takes a look at how much you spent to get work done by a certain time, planned value is proactive in that it looks at how much you should have spent at to get to a\u00a0specified date. planned value is also referred to as budgeted cost of work scheduled or bcws.<\/p>\n

to find the planned value at any point in the project, simply add up all your planned costs up to that point. often, your planned costs are referenced from\u00a0the project’s baseline.<\/p>\n
