に応じて / 次第で / 次第です

The outcome is not yet decided and hinges on one factor.

vs : Use 次第で: 天気次第で中止. It makes the factor decisive for something still open. に応じて describes adjusting in proportion to a factor (収入に応じて), which is a response, not a verdict waiting to be reached.

Closing a formal explanation by saying what the matter rests on.

vs : 次第です is the polite sentence-final form used to round off an explanation. 次第で sits mid-sentence with the outcome following it. Same word, and the choice is only whether the sentence ends there.
