Three lenses focus from different angles on a business case, which has no visible writing, just an approval stamp on it. There is a title to the page of “NPV vs ROI vs Payback Period: When should you use each?”

NPV, ROI and Payback Period aren’t rivals, they just answer different decision questions. But use the wrong one, and you optimise the wrong thing. Let KangaROI help you understand how to choose the right metric for the job.

Cyberpunk 2077 is open on Cap's computer. He is in one of V's apartments standing in the living space. The Appearance Menu Mod is open taking up half the screen. A modded NPC of Cap's canon V is standing beside him, nude and missing some textures from the process of constructing her.

3 distinct icons arranged side by side; on the left is a speedometer labeled “ROI”, in the middle is a treasure chest labeled “NPV”, and on the right is an upward curve labeled “IRR”, with the overarching title “What is the difference between ROI, NPV and IRR?”

3 distinct icons arranged side by side; on the left is a speedometer labeled “ROI”, in the middle is a treasure chest labeled “NPV”, and on the right is an upward curve labeled “IRR”, with the overarching title “What is the difference between ROI, NPV and IRR?”

ROI, NPV, and IRR aren’t the same thing:

💪 ROI shows efficiency.
💰 NPV shows total value.
📈 IRR shows growth potential.

Know the difference to build stronger business cases.

The Electoral College also creates a two-tiered democracy. With the EC, only "swing states" matter in presidential elections, ignoring something like three-quarters of the people in this country. Makes it even easier for bad actors to do bad things because we're focusing too narrowly.

And that's what they are saying about you over on the dirty bird cage so one hand slaps the other. what's new? How about we start working on reclaiming our votes and making the #NPV - National Popular Vote project; OUR National Law

Suggestion give up on him and let's focus on us. #NPV is what we all need to be working on Coast to Coast. Let's reclaim our votes and make them count instead of being bullied by our employees

What do you know about the #NPV program? Maybe you should spend some time getting it in play for your state so we don't repeat this again

Okay we understand how you feel. Do you have a solution to propose? What about the #NPV national popular vote program have you heard of it? have you thought about GETTING your state IN so that your vote counts?

#npv that's the answer because the national public vote would take care of eliminating the Electoral College and any fumbling around during the counting process

Birdie let's centralize this and make it more effective okay. First don't call it the resistance that's what they asked us not to do. Second start working on getting your state into the #NPV compact. If we all concentrated on that we could be in control in 4 years totally. Stop throwing away votes
