Hi expert,

can anybody give one example , explaining BCWS,BCWP and ACWP having different values.

Thanx in adv.

Hi

Adding to explaination of Muzamil, the figures depends on how POC is calculated too.

To explain consider following simple example :-

lets take an example of a activity in Construction project

Activity = Concreting

Work = 1000 m3

Planned overall cost = Material Cost of Concrete (as material) at Activity

= Quantity Required X unit rate

= 1000 X 3000

= Rs. 30,00,000

Noraml duration = 60 days

So, at 30 days Planned POC (based on work i.e. degree of processing) is = 500 m3 = 50 %

& BCWS = Planned POC X overall costs

= 50 % X 30,00,000 = Rs. 15,00,000

Actual Confirmation at 30 days = 400 m3 = 40 %

So, BCWP = Actual POC X overall costs

= 40 % X 30,00,000 = Rs. 12,00,000

Now consider the GRN of "Concrete" material as 450 m3 (till date),

so ACWP = 450 m3 X 3000 (unit rate of material) = RS. 13,50,000

Hope this helps you.

Hi Ashis,

BCWS:This is the value of the planned services, relating to a reference factor (planned costs or overall budget) for the overall value of the work to be done.

It is calculated as follows:

BCWS = Planned POC * overall costs

BCWP:This is the value of the services actually rendered in relation to a reference factor (planned costs or overall budget) for the overall value of the services.

It is calculated as follows:

BCWP = Actual POC * overall costs

ACWP:Costs actually incurred
