In option I, the piece of land can only be used for either one of the projects, i.e., the extension of the existing plant or the building of a more efficient headquarters. Thus, these projects are mutually exclusive as only one of these projects can be undertaken. However, in option II, both projects can be undertaken simultaneously, i.e., expanding the plant and relocating the company's head office to a new location. Hence, option I is the example of mutual exclusive projects.
