1991 Policy
Division of income shall be handled as follows:
- Gross royalties, fees, and other financial returns received by the University from such inventions shall first be reduced by 15% for administrative costs plus additional expenses of patenting, protecting patent rights, and marketing the inventions.
- Net income remaining shall then ordinarily be divided in accordance with the percentages stated below.
The policy then describes 70% employee share for accumulated net income up to $50,000 and 40% employee share for accumulated net income over $50,000.
