Applying the Nash Bargaining Solution for a Reasonable Royalty II

This paper expands on the concepts presented in Applying the Nash Bargaining Solution for a Reasonable Royalty ( arXiv:2005.10158 ). The goal is to refine the process for determining a reasonable royalty using statistical methods in cases where there is risk and uncertainty regarding each party's disagreement payoffs (opportunity costs) in the Nash Bargaining Solution (NBS). This paper uses a Bayes Cost approach to analyze Case 1, Case 2, and the Original Nash model from the authors' previous work. By addressing risk and uncertainty in the NBS, the NBS emerges as a more reliable method for estimating a reasonable royalty, aligning with the criteria outlined in Georgia Pacific factor fifteen.

Applying the Nash Bargaining Solution for a Reasonable Royalty

There has been limited success applying the Nash Bargaining Solution (NBS) in assigning intellectual property damages due to the difficulty of relating it to the specific facts of the case. Because of this, parties are not taking advantage of Georgia-Pacific factor fifteen. This paper intends to bring clarity to the NBS so it can be applied to the facts of a case. This paper normalizes the NBS and provides a methodology for determining the bargaining weight in Nash's solution. Several examples demonstrate this normalized form, and a nomograph is added for computational ease.
