Ecological discounting [PDF]

Which rates should we use to discount costs and benefits of different natures at different time horizons? We answer this question by considering a representative agent consuming two goods whose availability evolves over time in a stochastic way. We extend the Ramsey rule by taking into account the degree of substitutability between the two goods and of

Discounts for Lack of Marketability: Are Business Appraisers Discounting the Discounts?

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2009
We set out to understand the size of DLOMs by comparing the subject of the discounts, privately held companies, to the bases from which discounts should be applied.

DISCOUNTING AND SAFETY

Oxford Economic Papers, 1995
Anticipated effects on the health and safety of future generations are of central importance in a number of policy contexts. It is, therefore, somewhat disturbing that there now exists a variety of practices and prescriptions concerning the extent to which future safety benefits or disbenefits should be discounted in public-sector allocative and ...

Social Discounting

Psychological Science, 2006
The amount of money a person was willing to forgo in order to give $75 to another person decreased as a hyperbolic function of the perceived social distance between them. Similar hyperbolic functions have previously been shown to describe both time and probability discounting.
