I. Mutually exclusive investments
These are alternative options which serve the same purpose and compete with each other.
if the firm is for instant considering three mutually project and one of them is undertaken
the other two will automatically be rejected irrespective of their profitability,

These projects serve different purposes and do not compete with each other. If the firm is
considering five independent projects, all of them can be undertaken subject to their
profitability and availability of funds.
III. Contingent / complementary investments
These are dependent projects. One project is required in the implementation or operation
of another. This implies that the functioning of each project requires an input from the
other complementary project.
