It depends on whether the old or new permanent disability schedule applies. Dates of injury after 1.1.05 use the new cheaper permanent disability schedule. Knees on the new schedule are much lower than the old schedule.

It also depends on what the doctor says in the permanent and stationary report, value of future medical care, TTD periods due if any, and whether settlement gives up rights to retraining voucher or not.

I am not familiar with California's work comp schedule, however many states have scheduled (charts that dicate) settlements. This information should be available through the applicable state's Dept. of insurance/insurance commissioner. Most likely you can locate this information by contacting that office or wading through their website.

The amount of money you will lose if you take a cash settlement depends on the amount of the settlement.

If the other option is stocks then cash might get your more at this time due to the ups and downs of the stock market.
