Earned Value Management (EVM) is a method or an approach in measuring the project performance throughout the project at any point of time that integrates the variances of cost and schedule in assisting organizations to decide either to continue or terminate the project. 1. List FIVE benefits of EVM method in assuring the successful implementation of project 2. Within 200 days, the equipment supplier has agreed to supply 100 units of spare equipment at the price of RM500 per unit. However, 50 days later, the supplier can only supply 21 units with an actual total cost of RM11,400. a. Indicate either the supply is ahead or behind the schedule (in days). b. Indicate either the supply is under or exceed the budget (in amount). c. Indicate the cost performance of the supply (in percentage) d Indicate the performance of the supply in term of schedule (in percentage)

1 Vehicle purchase. A student living in Lower Hutt is considering the purchase of a newvehicle. An electric vehicle (EV) can be purchased for $40,000 and has a running cost of $0.20per km. Alternatively, a (petrol) combustion vehicle (CV) can purchased for $25,000 and has arunning cost of $0.45 per km. The student is determined to make a decision which minimisesthe total cost depending on the number of kilometres that the vehicle will be used.(Here you should assume that the running costs also account for periodic costs such as mainte-nance, insurance, registration.)(a) Describe the decision and environment variables associated with this problem.(b) Determine the utility function R(D, X) which maps the outcomes to the total cost incurred.(c) Use a break-even analysis to determine the number of km for which the optimal decisiondiffers above and below this amount. Specifically, plot R(D, X), determine where thebreak-even point occurs and mark it clearly on your plot, then briefly…
