Revisão bibliográfica quanto a valoração das patentes e seu efeito monopolístico

Abstract

Intangible assets are directly related to economic growth and the generation of innovations, and some of the usual technologies only became possible due to patents. In this sense, the literature and the judiciary debate about the period of validity of the monopoly granted to patents, a debate that is little punctuated by the economic literature. This work aims to verify the existence of monopolistic effects resulting from patents and to evaluate the different valuation methods. The method used was the literature review, compiling microeconomics manuals and relevant articles. It is possible to highlight the negotiation capacity between licensor and licensor, breaking the paradigm of mere imposition of prices, bearing in mind that most of these contracts are in force in the long term. The results obtained by the work were the existence of different valuation methods, however, none can be satisfactorily applied, being mere references, lacking the theme of new deepening. In addition, the possibility of the existence of an ideal period for patents to remain in effect has been demonstrated, as well as the need for a broad analysis of this asset in order to define monopoly power, since the elasticity of demand can alter the ability to establish patents. monopolies, especially when there are substitute or complementary goods.
