Royalty Calculation Based on Gross Selling Price
Synthèse Legislator
Généré par l'IAThe court addressed a dispute concerning the proper calculation of royalties under an agreement tied to the selling price of a product, where the primary issue revolved around whether specific deductions or adjustments to the selling price were permissible before applying the royalty percentage. The court reasoned that the contractual language explicitly defined the base for royalty calculation as the gross selling price, and without clear contractual authorization for the specific post-sale deductions claimed by the payor, those deductions could not be factored into the royalty base, affirming the obligation to calculate royalties based on the price received before the disputed adjustments.
