This chapter introduces fuzzy net present value analysis. The present value approach is first analyzed by crisp values. After the basic definitions of fuzzy numbers are given, the concept and applications of fuzzy present value are handled. The other components of this chapter is the fuzzy and probabilistic approach to the present value, the fuzzy net present value maximization as an objective in project selection problems, applications to the valuation of projects with future options, interpretation of fuzzy present value and fuzzy net present value, fuzzy net present value as objective in optimization problems from the industry, fuzzy net present value as an objective in spatial games, and fuzzy classification based on net present value.
