Which of the following statements correctly describes your decision? (Select the best answer below.)
A. You should authorize the $100,000 expenditure to continue the project because the marginal cost-benefit analysis treats the $2.5 million as part of the project's initial capital outlay that can be recovered only if the project is implemented. The $100,000 expenditure will also become a cost unlikely to be recovered.
C. You should not authorize the $100,000 expenditure to continue the project because it is surpassed by new telephony technology. Though the marginal cost-benefit analysis treats the $2.5 million as a cost that is irrelevant to the current decision-making, continuing the project would be foolish even if the $100,000 expenditure generates a positive net present value.
