Venture Investors: Time Horizon for Projections in a Financial Model for a Series A/B stage company

Hi all, if you were preparing a financial model to do the following to project growth for your company, how far out would you take it for investors - 3 years, 5 years? The model will do the following: 

1. Calculate Cash Burn / Runway / MoM Growth

2. Project outcomes for future investors
