You work for a pharmaceutical company that has developed a new
drug. The patent on the drug will last 17 years. You expect that
the drug's profits will be $ 1 million in its first year and that
this amount will grow at a rate of 3 % per year for the next 17
years. Once the patent expires, other pharmaceutical companies
will be able to produce the same drug and competition will likely
drive profits to zero. What is the present value of the new drug if
the interest rate is 7 % per year?
The present value of the new drug is $ nothing million
The present value of the new drug is $ nothing million
