Project Management
Earned Value Calculator
Calculate the Cost Variance (CV) for a project as Earned Value minus Actual Cost, where Earned Value = Budget At Completion × Percent Complete. Use it to determine whether you are over or under budget for the work completed to date — a more meaningful metric than simple actual-vs-planned spend.
