 For a company, impact is easy to calculate as data about one's own asset is routinely collected. Likelihood is stillthe holy grail. So, both ISO/27001 and NIST 800-30 standards suggest the use of risk matrices as a tool to support such decisions. So you get a 5x5 risk matrix, where the interaction between the rare, frequent, ..., certain likelihood levels and the minor, severe, ..., critical consequence levels results in a final 5-level risk evaluation from low to high. This is pretty rough and well known to be full of errors. For a company, impact is easy to calculate as data about one's own asset is routinely collected. Likelihood is stillthe holy grail.
