I thought the breakeven point was related to costs, not NPV. So I’m leaning towards C as well.

I'm a bit confused on the difference between the internal rate of return and the risk-adjusted discount rate. I'll have to review my notes on capital budgeting to make sure I understand this properly before answering.

Okay, let me think this through step-by-step. The NPV formula includes the discount rate, and when NPV is zero, that means the discount rate is the one that makes the NPV equal to zero. I believe that's the definition of the internal rate of return, so I'll select C.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure on this one. I know the internal rate of return is related to NPV, but I can't quite remember the exact definition. I'll have to think this through carefully.

This one looks straightforward - the discount rate where NPV is zero is the internal rate of return, so I'll go with option C.

B) risk adjusted discount rate. Gotta love those finance terms, am I right? 'Risk adjusted'? Sounds like something straight out of a textbook. I bet the person who wrote this question is a real stickler for that kind of thing.

C) internal rate of return, all the way! It's the discount rate that makes the NPV zero, which is exactly what the question is asking for. Easy peasy!

I'm going with C) internal rate of return. It's the only one that really makes sense in the context of NPV. Although, to be honest, I'm a little worried about the question - it feels like a trick question or something.
