Implementing Fischer Black's Simple Discounting Rule
Corporate managers typically estimate the value of capital projects by discounting the project's expected future net cash flows at the cost of capital. The capital asset pricing model (CAPM) is generally used to estimate that cost. But, as anyone who has worked on the finance or business development staff of a public company can attest, there are major challenges in applying the CAPM, including largely unresolved questions about what constitutes the "market portfolio," how to estimate market risk premiums, and how to estimate the betas of projects.
