The Correct Option is C

Solution and Explanation

NPV = PV of Cash Inflows – PV of Cash Outflows. It considers the time value of money — future cash flows are discounted back to present value using a discount rate. A positive NPV means the project is expected to generate profit above the cost of capital.
