    Question

    Among various capital budgeting and investment appraisal

    methods, the Net Present Value (NPV) method is often considered superior primarily because it explicitly accounts for which of the following factors?
    A Total sales revenue Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Time value of money and cash flow timing Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Accounting profits without discounting Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Immediate payback of investments Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E Profitability as a simple ratio Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    NPV considers the time value of money by discounting future cash flows to their present value. This gives a more accurate measure of a project's profitability compared to methods like payback period or accounting rate of return.
