    The earned value of the project=$12,000

    Explanation:

    The budget for the project is as follows;

    Number of houses painted=number of houses every 2 weeks*number of weeks

    where;

    1 house every 2 weeks=0.5 houses per week

    Number of weeks=5 weeks

    replacing;

    Number of houses painted = (0.5*5) = 2.5 houses should be painted after 5 weeks

    But since three houses have been painted, we adopt the cost per number of houses painted instead of the cost per week. The earned value of the project is as follows;

    Earned value=Budget per house*number of houses painted

    where;

    Budget per house=$4,000

    Number of houses painted=3

    replacing;

    Earned value = (3*4,000) = 12,000

    The earned value of the project=$12,000
