`in an attempt to determine Whether a product has been a commercial success and (2) con-
`sidered whether the patent holder has established a “nexus” between the claimed inven-
`tion and the
`roduct’s commercial success. In this cha ter We discuss these tests and
`P
`Consider them alongside another test suggested by economic principles, namely, Whether
`the patented invention has earned or can be expected to earn a positive net return on
`Invested capital after accounting for all the relevant costs associated with developing and
`Commercializing the product. We analyze the commercial success standard in the context
`of two recent cases in which We applied these principles.

`Pri~
`marily an economic exercise, and economists increasingly assist courts in evaluating this
`issue. Case law indicates that courts have traditionally looked for such characteristics as
`increasing revenues, gain in share in an appropriately defined market, and public acdai
`in an attempt to determine whether a product has been a commercial success. Courts have
`also considered whether the patent holder has established a “nexus” between the claimed
`invention and the product’s commercial success—that is, whether the commercial success’
`if evident, is due to the patented feature as opposed to some other characteristic of the
`product or mode of selling employed by the manufacturer.
`From an economic perspective, commercial success could in principle be defined by a
`single criterion: Does the patented invention earn a positive net return (risk—adjusted) on
`invested capital after accounting for all relevant costs associated with developing and cnmn
`mercializing the patent as well as any alternatives available to the patent holder? Patentg
`exist to protect the human and financial investment used to develop new products, serv_
`ices, or processes. This investment, however, is beneficial, from a social perspective, only if
`consumers are willing to purchase an embodiment of the invention at such a price as to
`fully compensate the inventor for all costs incurred in bringing the product to market.3 Put
