Frequently Asked Questions:
What is transfer pricing?
Transfer pricing is the price charged when one division or department transacts with another within the same company. The method chosen affects divisional performance measurement and the incentives of division managers.
When does top management set the transfer price?
Top management intervention is typically used for large, infrequent, or strategically significant transfers. Its main drawback is that it can reduce divisional autonomy and motivation and may create friction between managers and headquarters.
How does market-based transfer pricing work?
Market-based pricing uses the current market price of the intermediate product and works best when a competitive external market exists. It aligns internal decisions with what the divisions could achieve by transacting outside the company.
How is a cost-based transfer price determined?
Cost-based pricing uses the seller's production costs, often defaulting to variable cost when there is excess capacity and full absorption cost when the seller is at capacity. A cost-plus margin is sometimes added so the selling division earns a reasonable return.
What are the pros and cons of negotiated transfer prices?
Negotiated pricing lets divisions act like independent entities, which preserves decentralization, autonomy, and flexibility. The downsides are that negotiation can be time-consuming and may favor the division with stronger bargaining power.
