I’m really unsure about this one; I thought it could also relate to scheduled performance being great, but that doesn’t seem right now.

If I recall correctly, a CPI under 1.0 means costs are higher than planned, so it must be A.

Alright, a CPI less than 1.0 means the cost for the completed work is less than the estimate. That's the definition of a cost underrun, so the correct answer is C) Cost underrun of performance to date. Nailed it!

A CPI less than 1.0 means the cost for the completed work is less than the estimate. So that's a good thing - it indicates a cost underrun. I'm feeling pretty good about this one.

Ugh, I'm a bit confused on this one. Is a CPI less than 1.0 good or bad? I know it has something to do with cost, but I can't remember if it's an overrun or underrun. Gotta think this through.
