Solution

The correct answers to this question are:

  1. If an asset's future net cash flows yield a negative net present value, do not invest. This is because a negative NPV indicates that the project's return would be less than the cost of investment, leading to a loss.

  2. When comparing projects with similar initial investments and risk, select the one with the highest net present value. A higher NPV indicates a more profitable investment, as it means the project's return would be greater than the cost of investment.

So, the correct options are "if an asset's future net cash flows yield a positive net present value, invest" and "when comparing projects with similar initial investments and risk, select the one with the highest net present value."
