The same accept / reject decision is reached when looking at independent projects using net present value, internal rate of return, and the profitability index methods.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

All three methods, Net Present Value (NPV), Internal Rate of Return (IRR), and Profitability Index (PI), are consistent in evaluating independent projects because they all fundamentally assess the project's value or efficiency in generating returns relative to its cost. If a project is deemed acceptable by one method (e.g., positive NPV), it will generally also be acceptable by the others (e.g., IRR greater than the cost of capital, PI greater than 1).
