Abstract: Patent price is the key for intellectual property (IP) trade and IP financing. By duopoly model, this article develops the theory of patent price. First, patent increases consumer surplus. Second, the firm with higher marginal costs prices patent higher than others. Finally, the firm with higher marginal costs prices patent higher under Stackelberg situation than that under Cournot cases.
