You are working at Johnson & Johnson and one of your responsibilities is to set prices for new drugs.
The firm has invented a cure for Aids and is protected by patent. The cost for the one time injection that
cures the disease is $100 and includes amortization of the development cost (The $1 billion cost to
develop the product is included in the $100) and the cost raw materials. Assume that insurance
companies currently spend $200,000 to treat an Aids patient. Assume 20% of the world population is
covered by insurance or socialized medicine.
What price do you charge for the treatment? Defend your answer.
Consider all your stakeholders. (Including your stock holders)
Hint. You won't find the answer to this hummer in your text. Also don't spend too much time trying to
quantify your answer. I'm looking more for your top of mind solution to this one.

Let's assume that The Recharge Bar has been wildly successful and we have achieved all our major
objectives in the U. S. market by the end of year three. Should we consider expanding our distribution
globally? What are some of the major factors that we need to be aware of and plan for? In other words,
what makes marketing on a global basis more difficult than simply distributing our product nationally?

Let's assume our objective for ReCharge is to deliver $300 million in first year sales and to capture the
#1 market share position in the category by the end of our first full year of operation.
(BTW. Setting marketing objectives prior to developing strategy is real important)

budget?

Instead you're going to get a chance to get your creative juices going and to hopefully have some fun
doing it.
Each of you will demonstrate your creative approach to the ReCharge Bar by developing a TV
commercial, radio spot or magazine ad. You don't need to get fancy with the graphics. You can verbally
describe what is going on. But write the actual copy for your ad.
You will need to restate your target audience and positioning. You won't be able to max out your points
if you forget.
(Please, no attachments in the main folder or mega files. If you want to share graphics drop it in the
Chatroom.)
Step out of the box, (And your comfort zone) and have some fun with it. I think we will have our own
award ceremony. We will vote on the best ad.
