Kelly Slater owns a parcel of land in Palm Springs and is considering two possible development options which both use his signature Kelly Slater Wave Pool technology.

a. Accept both options because they both have positive NPV
b. Choose Option A because it has a higher IRR
c. Reject both options because both have an IRR less than 10%
d. Choose Option B because it has a higher NPV
