In order to evaluate the investment project for the anthurium production in the municipality in 2011, through the integration of traditional techniques for project evaluationandarealoptionsapproach.ANPV(netpresent value) of $ 132 986, a benefit-cost ratio (B/C) of 1.07, net benefit-investment ratio (N/K) of 1.274 and internal rate of return (IRR) of 17% were obtained, which supports the project feasibility. When evaluated with the real options technique under scenarios of expansion, contraction, abandonment and strategic option, the following values were obtained: $169 209.26; $147 894.73; $145 798.53; $184 038.33; respectively for each of the scenarios, therefore it is determined that the most important scenarios are the strategic and expansion options.
