Your loan officer has offered you a mortgage with an APR of 4.6 percent. Alternatively, she tells you that you can "buy down” the interest rate to 4.25 percent if you pay points up front on the loan. A point on a loan is 1 percent (one percentage point) of the loan value.

Without an abandonment option, a project is worth $15 million today. Suppose the value of the project is either $20 million one year from today (if product demand is high) or $10 million (if product demand is low).
