Answer: B

Explanation:

To estimate the total hours to be expended at project completion, you can use the formula:

Estimate at Completion (EAC)=Total Budgeted HoursCPItext{Estimate at Completion (EAC)} = frac{text{Total Budgeted

Hours}}{text{CPI}}Estimate at Completion (EAC)=CPITotal Budgeted Hours Using the CPI calculated in Question 39:

EAC=12,0000.84≈14,201 hourstext{EAC} = frac{12,000}{0.84} approx 14,201 text{ hours}EAC=0.8412,000≈14,201 hours

So, the correct answer is B. 14,201 hours.
