Mutually Exclusive
Projects or expenditure are considered to be mutually exclusive if they cannot occur at the same time i.e. progressing with one automatically excludes progressing with another given a set of project or expenditure parameters. To decide which project to fund, companies will model potential or expected outcomes to find the best fit.
