When a distinct price for a Licensed Product is not invoiced, or when the price stated is not a reasonable price, the Sales Revenue shall be calculated as above, using the average of gross price billed by the Licensee in recent Sales of equivalent Licensed Products, and if there are no such Sales, then the Sales Revenue for the Licensed Product shall be deemed to be the gross price billed for the Sale of the article multiplied by the ratio of the manufacturing cost of the Licensed Product to the manufacturing cost of the article.
