I’m leaning towards D, "None of these," because it seems like all the options listed are relevant to risk assessment in discount rates.

I feel like we had a practice question about modifying the risk premium based on industry specifics, which makes me think B is definitely a valid component.

I’m not entirely sure, but I think the size effect is sometimes considered a separate factor rather than part of the discount rate itself.

I remember we discussed how the equity risk premium is a standard part of the discount rate, so A seems like something that should be included.
