You are managing a project to build a continuous concrete sound barrier along the highway, $10$ tall and $7\mathrm{.}2$ miles long. Total budget for the project is $$3\mathrm{.}6$ million, and you have been allotted $374$ work days to complete the entire wall.

$$ When the project was planned, the costs were determined to occur on a level basis day for day. In other words, on Day $0,$ no money has been budgeted, and no work has been completed. After Workday $187,$ you should have half the wall built and half the money spent, so that on Workday $374$ the wall is completed and the money is all gone.

$$ After $30$ days have elapsed, you realize things are getting a little behind, but not seriously, so you tell your foremen to step it up and get things going. You got busy on another project you were tasked with and didn$$t have a chance to closely track this wall for several months after that. Every time you called the foremen to inquire on progress, they always assured you $$Things are great!$$ You have now completed the other project, and on checking the wall closely, you determine at the end of Workday $238$ that $21,288\text{'}$ of the wall has been completed, and $$2,556,000$ has been spent on the project.

Are you ahead or behind on schedule $($SV$,$ SPI$)?$ Why do you think this may have happened?

Are you under or over budget $($CV$,$ CPI$)?$ What could have caused this? Is there a chance you could finish on or under budget? What would have to be changed for this to happen?

Will your team get a bonus for completing on time and under budget? Based on your position right now, what changes will you make in the plan for the remaining $136$ days?

If your team continues at the current rate, when do you expect to have the wall completed, and at what cost $($EAC$,$ VAC$)?$

If completing on time is mandatory, and you must make appropriate changes to accomplish this deadline, what will it cost you, and how will you get this done?
