The most reliable capital budgeting technique that should be used when comparing mutually exclusive alternative investments is net present value.

The correct answer is C

Explanation:

Net present value is the difference between present value of inflow and present value of outflow. NPV is superior to other investment appraisal techniques because of its value additivity. Whenever conflict arises between net present value and internal rate of return, the conflict is resolved in the favour of net present value.
