7.3.3.1 Cost Performance BaselineThis specifies what costs will be incurred and when. This matters because most projects will not receive their funding as a lump sum at the beginning but will be financed accord¬ing to a monthly or quarterly budget. This means that the project manager will need to indicate when funds need to be available.The simplest way to produce a cost baseline would be to aggregate all of the anticipated costs of the project and assume that they would be needed in proportion to the planned timescale.For example,Project Total cost was $100,000 Project planned to take 20 weeksThen a simple cost graph could be produced with the vertical axis calibrated in dollars and the horizontal axis calibrated in weeks.You could produce a simple cost graph by assuming that the planned cost per day was lin¬ear, that is as a straight line coming from the origin to a point that is aligned to $100,000 on the vertical axis and 20 weeks on the horizontal axis as shown:
