As a Control Account Manager (CAM) on a large satellite development effort, creating a small cluster of formation flying satellite constellations that will measure greenhouse gases simultaneously around the globe. The total program is worth $965,000,000.

Specifically, you are the CAM for the power system which includes the solar array subsystems as well as the power distribution unit that provides power to the instrument payloads. This is no small task as this is a very large satellite with extensive wiring and interdependencies within the subsystem.

Yesterday, your Program Manager stepped into your office and wanted to discuss your Control Account status.She presented you with the following report data. She mentioned that you tripped the variance analysis report (VAR) threshold and needed to provide a credible, thorough analysis report.

Write a defensible VAR that the program manager can understand. You'll first need to fill in the report's missing information (shaded).
