Agreed, 5% is a low discount rate. I used 5% only to compare with your example. Comparing Quickens NPV of $62.75 to your figure of only $36.75 suggests that one is incorrect. Your figure implies approximately 1.31 billion shares outstanding! Additionally you indicate that you only ran numbers out for ten years, my example runs twenty years. Time will tell which is a better measure but, I would argue, for valuations purposes I stand by Quickens twenty year methodology. I believe your opinion and drug company analogy with regard to patents would differ from that of Qualcomm's patent attorneys.
