this discourages customers from buying a new entrant's offerings

Explanation:

The high capital costs required of a business to enter a particular industry means it could affect the business's (new entrants) product prices which may not be appealing to customers. In other words, high capital costs means high product prices which are largely influential in choice of products by the customer. A lower price would therefore encourage customers to buy products of new entrants.
