I am sorry but you are wrong. ANY index over 1 is a good thing ANY index under 1 is a bad thing CPI = 0.87 is bad, ei. over budget SPI = 1.02 is good, ei. ahead of schedule The correct answer is C.

CPI = EV/AC - if the EV is higher than the AC, the resulting quotient will be >1, if the AC is higher than the EV, the resulting quotient will be <1. So if it's less than 1, the actual cost is higher than the earned value, meaning you're over budget
