Which of the following statements best describes externalities?

An externality is a situation where a project would have an adverse effect on some other part of the firm or on the environment. If the project would have a favourable effect on other operations, then this is not an externality.


The NPV method automatically deals correctly with externalities, even if the externalities are not specifically identified, but the IRR method does not. This is another reason to favour the NPV.


An example of an externality is a situation where a bank opens a new office, and that new office causes deposits in the bank’s other offices to decline.


Identifying an externality can never lead to an increase in the calculated NPV.
