Cost and Income View
Cost and Income view includes information about fixed and variable cost and income for all tasks. It can be used to assign fixed costs and income to tasks
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 include fixed cost or income.
- 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.
