Abstract
This paper finds that royalty licensing can be superior to fixed-fee licensing for the patent-holding firm when the cost-reducing innovation is non-drastic. The reason for this result is that the patent-holding firm enjoys a cost advantage over the licensee under royalty licensing while the two firms compete on equal footing under fixed-fee licensing.
