Discount rate
The term "discount rate" has two distinct meanings:
1) In calculations of a company's intrinsic value, the term "discount rate" refers to the gain you'd need to realize to make your investment in a given stock worth the associated risk ("opportunity costs"). The discount rate factors in:
The bond rate: Your investment could grow risk-free at the bond rate. You'll need to beat this rate to make your investment worthwhile. Matching the bond rate also means automatically that your money will grow at or above the rate of inflation; if you fail to keep up with inflation, the purchasing power of your investment will dwindle over time.
A "risk premium": You're probably looking to realize a certain percentage gain over and above the inflation and bond rates to make assuming the investment risk worth your while. The size of this risk premium is up to you. Add the bond rate and risk premium together to arrive at a discount rate suitable to your investment expectations.
2) The interest rate the Federal Reserve Board charges large institutional banks for overnight borrowing. The discount rate is always lower than the federal funds rate, which is used when banks make short-term loans to each other. The Fed can influence short-term interest rates nationwide by raising or lowering the discount rate. Raising interest rates helps keep inflation in check. Lowering them generally fuels the economy and heats up the stock market.
