The aim of this paper is to present the possibilities and purposefulness of the application of fuzzy set theory to the valuation of real options. Owing to temporal fluctuations in the market, some input parameters in a model of a real option cannot always be expressed in a precise sense. Therefore, it is natural to consider them as a fuzzy numbers. Such an approach allows us to keep more information about the possible value of real options. A hybrid (fuzzy-stochastic) model for valuing a switch option is presented. Under these assumptions, the value of a switch option will be a fuzzy random set. This article assesses the incremental benefit of product switch options in steel plant projects. Such options are valued by Monte Carlo simulation and modelling the prices of and demand for steel products using fuzzy geometric Brownian motion. Finally, the value of a product switch option is defined by the upper and lower probability distribution function

In the steel industry which is subject to significant volatility in its output prices and market demands for different ranges of products the diversification of production can generate important value for switch real options. Therefore, a common practice is to invest in various assets, thus generating the possibility of diversification of production and valuable switch options. The incremental benefit of product switch options in steel plant projects has been assessed. Such options are valued using the Monte Carlo simulation and modeling the prices of and demand for steel products as geometric Brownian motion (GBM). Our results show that this option can generate a significant increase in the net present value (NPV) of metallurgical projects.
