Question

to get detailed values of project schedule and cost performance, look at ____ and ____. select an answer: bars in a gantt chart; schedule variances schedule variances; cost variances bars in a gantt chart; cost variances tasks that are behind schedule; tasks that are over budget

Explanation:

To determine project schedule and cost performance details, we analyze each option:

• Option 1: Bars in a Gantt Chart show task timelines (not detailed schedule performance values), and schedule variances alone don't cover cost. Eliminate.
• Option 2: Schedule variances measure the difference between planned and actual schedule, and cost variances measure the difference between planned and actual cost. These two directly provide detailed values for schedule and cost performance.
• Option 3: Bars in a Gantt Chart don't give detailed schedule performance values, and cost variances alone don't cover schedule. Eliminate.
• Option 4: Tasks behind schedule/over budget are symptoms, not detailed performance values (variances are more precise for measurement). Eliminate.

Answer:

B. schedule variances; cost variances
