is the best method of analyzing mutually exclusive projects

Explanation:

Net present value is the present value of after-tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.  

Only projects with a positive NPV should be accepted. A project with a negative NPV should not be chosen because it isn't profitable.  

When choosing between positive NPV projects, choose the project with the highest NPV first because it is the most profitable.

Internal rate of return is the discount rate that equates the after-tax cash flows from an investment to the amount invested

Accounting rate of return = Average net income / Average book value  

Average book value = (cost of equipment - salvage value) / 2

NPV is more preferred to IRR for projects with multiple negative cash flows during the project live .
