Abstract: In this paper,we study the problem on investment in upgrading product under duopoly market structure with options game theory.Optimal time of investment in upgrading product is analyzed under preemption equilibrium and simultaneous equilibrium.The result indicates that decreasing the price of product leads to a lower optimal investment threshold.The result is consistent with the intuition in the management practice.Thus theoretical guide to investment in upgrading product is proposed.

Key words: product upgrading, option game, preemption equilibrium, simultaneous equilibrium
