    The correct answer is A) NPV would be understated.

    Explanation:

    NPV is the difference between the present value of cash inflows and the present value of cash outflows over a period of time.

    The Salvage value is added at the end of the cash flow. So is a cash inflow.

    And if we ignore salvage value the difference, the cash inflows will be smaller, so the NPV would be understated.
