Documentation
Definition
Projection is used to determine forecasts of actual costs from a report month through to the end of the fiscal year. Four projection methods are available. The projection process is explained below using the following letters:
H1,H2,H3,H4 - projection methods
T - report period from which projection begins
T-1 - period before the report period
The actual costs are taken as forecast values from the prior periods, from period T the planned costs allocated with a variance. The projected value is determined each period.
Projection method 1 (H1):
Periods 1 through T-1: actual costs
Periods T through 16: plan costs
Projection method 2 (H2):
Periods 1 through T-1: actual costs
Periods T through 16: average actual costs of periods 1 through T-1
Projection method 3 (H3):
Periods 1 through T-1: actual costs
Periods T through 16: plan costs + average costs from 1 through T-1 - average plan costs from 1 through T-1
Projection method 4 (H4):
Periods 1 through T-1: actual costs
Periods T through 16 : plan costs + average actual costs from period T-1 - average plan costs from T-1
