Use the following work breakdown structure (WBS), and document your assumptions in preparing the cost model. Assume a labor rate of $100 per hour for the project manager and $60 per hour for other project team members.

Assume that you have completed 3 months of the project. The BAC was $200,000 for this 6-month project. You can also make the following assumptions:
PV=$120,000
EV=$100,000
AC=$90,000
a. What is the cost variance, schedule variance, cost performance index (CPI), and schedule performance index (SPI) for the project?b. Use the CPI to calculate the estimate at completion (EAC) for this project. Is the project performing better or worse than planned?c. Use the SPI to estimate how long it will take to finish this project.After completing your charts, write a 150-word follow-up in which you complete the following:Explain how the project is doing based on the CPI and SPI. Is it ahead of schedule or behind? Is it under budget or over?
