Managers often use a(n) utilitarian approach when making organizational decisions - using financial performance such as profit as the best definition of what constitutes an ethical choice for the company.
<u>Explanation:</u>
When decisions are taken by taking benefits and the costs that are associated with stakeholders into consideration is an utilitarian approach. The main thing that is considered in this approach for taking any decision is consideration of the outcome and net result of the action that is to be taken.
It aims in taking an action that has greater good for many number of people and less harm for lesser number of people. It considers both the people who gets benefits and those people who suffer from the decision. It mainly focus on choosing an alternate that is more ethical and produces a good balancing of benefits than harm.

None of the projects should be accepted because they have negative NPV
Explanation:
The question requires the computation of NPV using 0% and 9%.
The cashflows of the two projects will be discounted at 0% and 9%.
The discount factors for each project can be calculated using the formula (1+r)-n. The cashflows of the projects will be multiplied by the discount factors to obtain the present values. NPV is the difference between present values of cash inflows and initial outlay.
Goodwill would be unable to measure the standardize tests.
