The following two example problems outline the steps and information needed to calculate the Pacing to Goal.

P = (AR - PR) / PR 

Variables:

  • P is the Pacing to Goal
  • AR is the actual result ($) 
  • PR is the planned result ($) 

To calculate the pacing to goal, subtract the planned result from the actual result, then divide by the planned result.
