Investment projects are considered to have a finite life because of fast-changing technology environment, economic environment and policy environment. It analyzed the influence of finite project life on firms' investment strategies under uncertainty.It used a numerical example and Matlab software to verify the results. It shows that the follower investment threshold is sensitive to the change of the project life: Increasing investment project life raises the value of investment and accelerates the follower's investment.
