Answer: False

An abandonment option is a feature which protects each party’s financial interest in the event an investment fails to earn. It gives a party a right to withdraw from a contract before its maturity.

An abandonment value, on the other hand, is the liquidation value of the asset and can be calculated by subtracting the net present value of the investment from the initial value. If it is negative, then an abandonment option is exercised.
