Two projects having different investment outlay cannot be compared by Net Present Value
method because it indicates the NPV in absolute terms. In such a situation Benefit Cost Ratio
should be applied. It is the ratio of benefits (cash inflows) to (cash outflows). It is the ratio present
value of cash inflows to present value of cash outflows. Thus it measures present value of returns.
This method is also known as Profitability Index or Present Value Index Method.
