Which of these is LEAST useful in assessing a project's viability?

  • A.The discounted net present value
  • B.The number of employees
  • C.The breakeven output
  • D.The payback period

Answer: B

Correct answer: The number of employees

Headcount says nothing about whether a project is worth doing - it is an input, and a large one may be a cost rather than a merit. Viability is judged by net present value, which discounts the whole cash flow, and supported by breakeven and payback, which measure the margin of safety and the exposure.
