Can the the relaxed energy of a material system (eV/atom) computed by DFT using VASP be positive?

If it is positive, why is it so? Is it due to specific convergence criteria or choice of pseudopotentials? I cannot check the convergence of the DFT calculations as they have been downloaded from a ...

A cubic unit cell in DFT of volume 'V' has 'n' atoms in it, for an extended volume V' how many atoms would be there in the new volume?

We can also assume the lattice parameter of the cubic unit cell to be a and the that of the extended cell to be a', which means that V' = (a')^3 So is the number of atoms n' in the extended volume V' ...
