Sorry for a delayed reply, but I just noticed this. The discount rate depends somewhat on the terms of the deal. There's obviously a big difference between a loan secured by the assets of the entrepreneur and an equity investment. Assuming you're t…

I think Sacha's post points up the problem where we mix all sorts of roles together!!!! We need to keep separate 1. Risk in the project 2. investor cost of capital 3. other issues like "spare" funds My brain can only deal with things one at a tim…
