I’m confused between NPV and IRR; I thought both could give some kind of monetary value, but maybe only NPV is absolute?

I feel like the Accounting Rate of Return might be relevant here, but it doesn't seem to provide a clear monetary value like NPV does.

I remember practicing a question like this, and I think the Profitability Index is more about ratios than absolute values.

I think the method that gives an absolute monetary value is the Net Present Value, but I'm not entirely sure.

Okay, I've got this. Net present value is the investment appraisal method that gives you a clear, numerical value to base your decision on. The other methods are more relative comparisons. B is the answer.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure on this one. I know net present value is important, but I can't remember if it's the only one that provides an absolute monetary value. Let me think this through...

I think B is the right choice here. Net present value tells you the actual dollar amount you can expect from the investment, which makes it the best method for an absolute monetary value.

Hmm, I'm not sure about that. Wouldn't it be better to increase the interest rate and the price to maximize the seller's after-tax profit?

Wait, there's an 'Accounting rate of return'? Sounds like something my accountant grandma would approve of. Where's the fun in that?
