Cost Columns of the EPS Table

Actual Expense Cost field

The actual cost for all project expenses associated with the project within the EPS.

Actual Labor Cost field

The actual cost for all labor resources assigned to the projects within the EPS.

Actual Material Cost field

The actual units for all material resources assigned to the project within the EPS.

Actual Nonlabor Cost field

The actual cost for all nonlabor resources assigned to the project within the EPS.

Actual This Period Labor Cost field

The labor costs incurred during this financial period.

If period performance is stored, the calculation is Actual Labor Cost minus the sum of the stored Actual This Period Labor Cost fields for all previous periods.

If the period performance is not stored, Actual This Period Labor Cost is the same as Actual Labor Cost.

Actual This Period Material Cost field

The material costs incurred during this financial period.

If period performance is stored, the calculation is Actual Material Cost minus the sum of the stored Actual This Period Material Cost fields for all previous periods.

If the period performance is not stored, Actual This Period Material Cost is the same as Actual Material Cost.

Actual This Period Nonlabor Cost field

The nonlabor costs incurred during this financial period.

If period performance is stored, the calculation is Actual Nonlabor Cost minus the sum of the stored Actual This Period Nonlabor Cost fields for all previous periods.

If the period performance is not stored, Actual This Period Nonlabor Cost is the same as Actual Nonlabor Cost.

Actual Total Cost field

The actual total cost incurred on the project as of the project data date.

Calculated as Actual Labor Costs plus Actual Nonlabor Costs plus Actual Material Costs plus Actual Expense Costs.

At Completion Expense Cost field

The sum of the actual plus remaining cost for all project expenses associated with the cost account.

Calculated as Actual Expense Cost plus Remaining Expense Cost.

At Completion Labor Cost field

The sum of the actual plus remaining costs for all labor resources assigned to the activities in the project.

If the activities are not started, this equals the planned labor costs. Once the activities are complete, this equals the actual labor costs.

Calculated as Actual Labor Cost plus Remaining Labor Cost.

At Completion Material Cost field

The material cost at completion. It is the sum of the actual plus remaining costs for all material resources assigned to all activities in the project.

It is the same as the planned material costs if the activities are not started, and the actual material costs once the activities are completed.

Calculated as Actual Material Cost plus Remaining Material Cost.

At Completion Nonlabor Cost field

The nonlabor cost at completion. It is the sum of the actual plus remaining costs for all nonlabor resources assigned to the activities in the project.

It is the same as the planned nonlabor costs if the activities are not started, and the actual nonlabor costs once the activities are completed.

Calculated as Actual Nonlabor Cost plus Remaining Nonlabor Cost.

At Completion Total Cost field

The estimated cost at completion for the activities in the project.

Calculated as the Actual Total Cost plus the ETC (estimate-to-complete) cost. The method for computing ETC depends on the Earned Value technique selected for the activity's WBS.

BL Project Expense Cost field

The planned cost for all expenses associated with the project in the project baseline.

BL Project Labor Cost field

The cost for all labor resources assigned to the project in the project baseline.

BL Project Material Cost field

The planned cost for all material resources assigned to the project in the project baseline.

BL Project Nonlabor Cost field

The cost for all nonlabor resources assigned to the project in the project baseline.

BL Project Total Cost field

The total cost for the project in the project baseline.

Calculated as BL Project Labor Cost plus BL Project Nonlabor Cost plus BL Project Material Cost plus BL Project Expense Cost.

Planned Expense Cost field

The planned total cost of all expenses associated with the project or EPS.

Planned Labor Cost field

The planned costs for all labor resources assigned to activities in the project.

Planned Material Cost field

The planned cost for all expenses associated with the project or EPS.

Planned Non Labor Cost field

The planned costs for all non labor expenses associated with the project or EPS.

Planned Total Cost field

The planned cost for all expenses associated with the project or EPS.

Remaining Expense Cost field

The remaining costs for all project expenses associated with the activities in the EPS.

Remaining Labor Cost field

The remaining costs for all labor resources assigned to the activities in the EPS.

The remaining cost reflects the cost remaining for the EPS.

Remaining Material Cost field

The remaining material costs for all project expenses associated with the activities in the EPS.

Remaining Nonlabor Cost field

The remaining nonlabor costs for all project expenses associated with the activities in the EPS.

Remaining Total Cost field

The remaining total cost for the project, including labor resources, nonlabor resources, and project expenses.

Calculated as Remaining Labor Costs plus Remaining Nonlabor Costs plus Remaining Expense Costs.

Variance - Expense Cost field

The difference between project baseline expense cost and the at completion expense cost.

Calculated as Project Baseline Expense Cost minus At Completion Expense Cost.

Variance - Labor Cost field

The difference between the project baseline labor cost and the at completion labor cost.

Calculated as BL Labor Cost minus At Completion Labor Cost.

Variance - Material Cost field

The difference between the project baseline planned material cost and the at completion material cost.

Calculated as Project Baseline Planned Material Cost minus At Completion Material Cost.

Variance - Nonlabor Cost field

The difference between the project baseline nonlabor cost and at completion nonlabor cost.

Calculated as BL Nonlabor Cost minus At Completion Nonlabor Cost.

Variance - Total Cost field

The difference between the project baseline total cost and at completion total cost.

Calculated as BL Total Cost minus At Completion Total Cost.
