Question from Oliver Lehmann (www.oliverlehmann.com)

 I need an opinion the following (why one or the other)

124. Post mortem earned value analysis of a project showed the following data: 
SPI: 0.78
CPI: 1.00
What is this telling you?
 
a. The entire work of the project has been finished behind schedule and on 
budget.
b. The entire work of the project has been finished ahead of schedule and on 
budget.
c. The project has been terminated before completion. At that time it was behind 
schedule and on budget
d. The project has been terminated before completion. At that time it was ahead 
of schedule and on budget
 
Based on the question b,d are not relevant
 
Answer sheet has c as the answer. Why is c more relevant than a?
 

as per q PV  = 78% of BAC or EAC.(SPI= 0.78 = EV/PV)

hence work was remained and not completed.

It is post mortem of a happened project, means work was terminated before completion.
