Earned Value Management Formulas:

BAC: Budget at Completion = Project Budget
PV: Planned Value = BAC x P%complete
EV: Earned Value = BAC x A%complete
AC: Actual Costs = Actual spend
SPI: Schedule Performance Index = EV/PV
SV: Schedule Variance = EV - PV
CPI: Cost Performance Index = EV/AC
TCPI: To-Complete Performance Index = (BAC-EV)/(BAC-AC)
CV: Cost Variance = EV - AC
EAC: Estimate at Completion = BAC/CPI
ETC: Estimate to Complete = EAC - AC
VAC: Variance at Completion = BAC - EAC

7 Basic Tools of Quality:

Control Charts (rule of 7)
Cause and Effect Diagrams (Fishbone/Ishikawa)
Pareto Charts (80/20 rule, most defects listed first)
Flow charts (picture of whole process)
Histograms (Compare characteristics - low, critical)
Check sheets (for collecting data)
Scatter Diagrams (Compare two different data points)
