Abstract: Abstract The paper comments on Khan et al. (J Assoc Inf Syst 18(5):372–402, 2017), who study real option exercise decisions in the context of a single IT project and in a portfolio setting, respectively. The issues identified concern the concept of (economic) rationality and the treatment of project interdependencies. The explanations provided may prove useful in other contexts.
