In my opinion, u are right..it should not be NPV.

Dear Friend, In my opinion, when there are two mutually exclusive events,and also when the life of the projects are not same, for deciding the project, we should ascertain that by (i) Equated Annual Benefit Method or (2) Equated Cost Method. If there are sunk costs or no cost data available we can use EAB Method.
