摘要

This paper extends the classic irreversible-investment problem by incorporating Knightian uncertainty to investigate the effect of ambiguity on a firm's endogenously determined intensity and timing decisions. Compared to preceding studies, we clarify that the introduction of Knightian uncertainty brings a new trade-off between the option effect and ambiguity effect. Concretely, we find that ambiguity results in a U-shaped pattern of the optimal intensity as well as investment threshold against the volatility of the project. Inheriting from the non-monotonic pattern, an increase in risk can actually shorten the expected exercise time and thereby speed up investment in certain situations. However, an increase in ambiguity via a change in the degree of Knigtian uncertainty unambiguously narrows the intensity and accelerates the investment. Finally, robustness for parameterization is examined in this paper as well.
