[2] [6] The "discount rate" is the rate at which the "discount" must grow as the delay in payment is extended. [7] This fact is directly tied into the time value of money and its calculations. [1] The present value of $1,000, 100 years into the future. Curves representing constant discount rates of 2%, 3%, 5%, and 7%
The utility of an event x occurring at future time t under utility function u, discounted back to the present (time 0) using discount factor β, is (). Since more distant events are less liked, 0 < β < 1.
Forward Discount Rate 60% 40% 30% 25% 20% Discount Factor 0.625 0.446 0.343 0.275 0.229 Discounted Cash Flow (22) (10) 3 28 42 This gives a total value of 41 for the first five years' cash flows. MedICT has chosen the perpetuity growth model to calculate the value of cash flows beyond the forecast period.
The Folk Theorem suggests that if the players are patient enough and far-sighted (i.e. if the discount factor ), then repeated interaction can result in virtually any average payoff in an SPE equilibrium. [3] "Virtually any" is here technically defined as "feasible" and "individually rational".
The present value of $1,000, 100 years into the future. Curves represent constant discount rates of 2%, 3%, 5%, and 7%. The time value of money refers to the fact that there is normally a greater benefit to receiving a sum of money now rather than an identical sum later.
The discount factor formula for period (0,t) expressed in years, and rate for this period being (,) =, the forward rate can be expressed in terms of discount factors:
The concept of the stochastic discount factor (SDF) is used in financial economics and mathematical finance. The name derives from the price of an asset being computable by "discounting" the future cash flow x ~ i {\displaystyle {\tilde {x}}_{i}} by the stochastic factor m ~ {\displaystyle {\tilde {m}}} , and then taking the expectation.

The result quantifies the advantage of being the first to propose (and thus potentially avoiding the discount). The generalized result quantifies the advantage of being less pressed for time, i.e. of having a discount factor closer to 1 than that of the other party.
