The Net Present Value (NPV) approach will be the best method to proceed with.

The NPV approach typically falls under the following decision tree:

a. If NPV is negative (Reject the proposal)

b. If NPV is positive (Accept if it's a singular project, Accept the highest positive NPV if it's for mutually exclusive Projects)

c. If Zero (this is the breakeven line at which the Project covers all its cost but does not return a profit.) Also referred to as the IRR
