Form the data provided PV = $12,400,000, EV = $14,500,000 & AC = $ 14,500,000

It can be understood that,

1) AC > PV (i.e project is over budget on the specified Data Date)

2) EV > PV (i.e. project is ahead of schedule on the specified Data Date)

so the answer should be "The project is over budget & ahead of schedule" .

As this is not an option, so option (c) can be considered only if AC=BAC on the specified data date.
