C. The project is currently behind schedule with a corresponding lower cost, and every effort is being made to expedite the delayed activities. This statement accurately reflects the situation where the project is behind schedule (Actual progress < Planned progress) but is incurring lower costs (AC < Budgeted cost). It also communicates the proactive approach of making efforts to expedite delayed activities to mitigate the schedule slippage.
