An SP value less than 1.0 indicates the project is behind schedule. An SP value greater than 1.0 indicates the project is ahead of schedule.
Budget Performance	A commonly used cost-efficiency indicator.	A BP value less than 1.0 indicates a cost overrun of the estimates. A BP value greater than 1.0 indicates a cost underrun of the estimates.

% Complete	Percent complete equals the Earned Value to date divided by total project budget, or BAC.	There are no notes.
Estimate to Complete (ETC)	Estimated cost required to complete the remainder of the project given your current actual payments for the project and your current budget performance.	To calculate the ETC, the Budget at Complete (BAC) is divided by the current Budget Performance (BP), and the current Actual Payments (AP) are subtracted.
Budget at Complete (BAC)	Total original planned project budget. The BAC represents the sum of all Planned Values (PV) for the project at completion.	There are no notes.
