The Static Theory of Transfer Pricing

Abstract

An analysis of the literature of transfer pricing is presented. It is shown that, under assumptions that the firm and its divisions have full deterministic knowledge of their costs and demands, some form of average cost is the appropriate transfer price. What happens when a firm adopts an objective other than profit maximization is further examined.
