Business Decision 

The term Business Decision is used to rationalize a seemingly irrational choice in the face of obvious or logical alternatives. Often, there appears to be no logic whatsoever in a "Business Decision" which is coincidently very often the case. The term Business Decision is frequently used by executives and managers at corporations to describe a poor decision while either saving face or avoiding laughing uncontrollably.
"We made a 'Business Decision' to use a service that is offered by a key business partner at ten times the price of an effective alternative from a different supplier."
