    (B) Take any investment opportunity where the net present value (NPV) is not negative; turn down any opportunity when it is negative.

    Explanation:

    Net present value (NPV) simply differentiates between the present value of cash inflows and the present value of cash outflows.

    And the rule is that a company should only invest or be engaged in any business that has a positive net present value and exclude themselves from businesses that have been negative net present value as this can increase the company's income.
