Adding fixed costs and income to tasks
- Click the Schedule tab. In the Schedule Views
group, click Cost and Income.
- Select the task in which you want to add fixed costs.
- Enter base fixed cost in the Cost field. You can
enter in Low and High estimated costs.
- Select an accrual method in the Accrual column.
Accrual methods indicate how cost is accrued in the task. Default
accrual method is set in the Options >Cost. Available accrual methods are:
• Start • Finish • Prorated
- Enter Income in the same manner as above.
-
You may assign fixed cost to the summary tasks the same way as they
are assigned to the subtasks
-
You may define uncertainties in fixed cost using low, base
and high values of cost.
-
Uncertainty in variable cost is originated in task work
since variable cost = resource work * number of units * rate.
