Discount Rates

by John H. Cochrane - Journal of Finance , 2011
"... I argue that characterizing discount rate variation over time and across assets has replaced informational efficiency as the central organizing question of asset pricing research. I survey the facts: in the last 40 years we have learned that discount rates vary dramatically. Most views of the world ..."

Presidential Address: Discount Rates

by John H. Cochrane, John H. Cochrane - Journal of Finance , 2011
"... Discount-rate variation is the central organizing question of current asset-pricing research. I survey facts, theories, and applications. Previously, we thought returns were unpredictable, with variation in price-dividend ratios due to variation in expected cashflows. Now it seems all price-dividend ..."

Against High Discount Rates

by Richard B. Howarth, Richard B. Howarth - In Perspectives on Climate Change: Science, Economics, Politics, Ethics (W. Sinnott-Armstrong and , 2005
"... In the economics of climate change, the future benefits of greenhouse gas emissions abatement are commonly discounted at a rate equal to the long-run return on corporate stocks, which averaged 6 % per year during the 20th century. Since a 6 % discount rate implies that one dollar of benefits obtaine ..."

Time Horizon and the Discount Rate

by Christian Gollier - JOURNAL OF ECONOMIC THEORY 107, 463–473 , 2002
"... We consider an economy à la Lucas (1978, Econometrica 46, 1429–1446) with a risk-averse representative agent. The exogenous growth rate of the economy follows a random walk. We characterize the set of utility functions for which it is efficient to discount more distant cash flows at a lower rate. Th ..."

The Long-Term Discount Rate

"... We develop an expression for the long-term discount rate in an economy in which a representative consumer has access to both a risk-free and a risky production technology. Even when the risk-free sector is very small, and with probability one becomes a negligible fraction of the economy in the long ..."
