NPV (Net Present Value) Discount Rate: The discount rate reflects the market risk and opportunity cost for the Tenant or Landlord.

The discount rate also refers to the interest rate used in discounted cash flow (DCF) analysis to determine the present value of future cash flows. The discount rate in DCF analysis takes into account not just the time value of money, but also the risk or uncertainty of future cash flows. The greater the uncertainty of future cash flows, the higher the discount rate.
