The schedule variance of the entire project is $ (736,599) and Schedule performance index is at 0.68, which indicates that for every $1.00 spent in the project we are only getting $0.68 worth of work done.

Task 1.15 has a finish to start lag of 20 days and 30 days with its predecessors respectively, so this lag played a role in regulating the completion date of the project. Consequently, the project is expected to end on 11 January 2016, after making allowances for holidays and the other non-working days which have been stipulate in the instructions.
