Answer: False

Explanation:

When more than one alternative can be selected from those available, the alternatives are said to be mutually exclusive. In evaluating independent alternatives, each alternative is compared against the "Do Nothing" alternative.

For mutually exclusive alternatives, the do-nothing is a viable option when revenue alternatives are involved.
