Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Transfer prices are of dominant importance in company practice and a decentralised organisation, e.g. a profit centre-organisation, is most-widely used. This textbook takes an innovative controversial approach by looking at functions of transfer prices and how different types of transfer prices can fulfil them. Suggestions common in other textbooks will be picked up and it will be shown why they do not contribute to solve the problems companies face. With support of numerous examples and exercises a conceptual understanding of this most relevant management topic will be developed. Transfer prices are an issue in most advanced courses on Management Accounting and/or Management Control and their analysis receives increasing attention. They are covered in one chapter in almost all management accounting textbooks. This often leads to serious oversimplifications and reductions of contents. This books aims at filling this gap and to provide a concise and controversial view on the topic.

Download or read book Flexible Management of Transfer Prices and Multiple Valuation Approach Based upon SAP ERP within the Context of International Controlling written by Cenk Yildirim and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2015-12-01 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Master's Thesis from the year 2014 in the subject Business economics - Controlling, grade: 1,7, University of Applied Sciences Fulda, course: Master of International Management, language: English, abstract: According to the estimations of the World Trade Organization, sixty percent of the whole world trade is being concluded within the multinational enterprises. This can be put down to the fact that globalization has had led the enterprises separate business processes into divisions and the concept of “profit center” has gained currency in this regard. As a result of “vertical integration” between these profit centers, there is an enormous volume of exchanged goods within multinationals. This development in the practice gave rise to debates on an already existing issue, “Transfer Pricing”, however, from another dimension. The inter-company transfer of goods has gone beyond the domestic boundaries, and become an important issue in the international context. International Transfer Pricing can be assumed as an opportunity as well as a confounding factor from the perspective of multinational enterprises. On the one side, it is possible to move profits between individual divisions and create tax advantages depending on the corporate tax rates in different tax jurisdictions. On the other side, it becomes more complex for companies to track down the effects of intra-company transfers, evaluate the efficiency of the divisions and the company as a whole and make optimal decisions accordingly. At this point, some academicians propose using a multiple set of books to determine Transfer Prices. In so doing, they argue that managerial requirements can be met and optimal decisions can be reached for the good of the group as a whole. In the light of this information, a software product named SAP® ERP® comes to attention with its unique feature in terms of determining Transfer Prices flexibly. The multiple valuation approach in this system enables the user set Transfer Prices in different valuation techniques, i.e. legal view, group view and profit center view. This study investigates the relationship between these two research objects; thus, aims to verify whether and up to which extent implementing such a system is functional and beneficial by composing Transfer Pricing and managerial requirements that come along with it.
Download or read book Transfer Pricing for Multinational Enterprises An Integrated Approach written by Erik Wintzer and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2007-08 with total page 61 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diploma Thesis from the year 2003 in the subject Business economics - Accounting and Taxes, grade: 2,0 (B), Schmalkalden University of Applied Sciences (Economics), course: Cost Pricing und Controlling, 121 entries in the bibliography, language: English, abstract: Globalization of business has replaced the concept of national exchanges with global transactions. Consequently, the changes due to globalization play a big role in the strategy of multinational enterprises. The volume of intrafirm trade is huge and expanding rapidly as multinationals globalize their investment and trade. Today, a considerable proportion of world trade takes place within multinational enterprises. This indicates the importance of transfer pricing conspicuously. The intention of this book is to describe the challenge of transfer pricing holistically and to exhibit some options for multinational enterprises determining their transfer prices. While management accounting as well as strategic aspects of transfer prices are also relevant for enterprises, which are not multinational, external aspects (specifically tax accounting) are typically only crucial for multinationals. This book is an attempt to integrate all aspects of transfer pricing targeting practitioners as well as economists.

Download or read book Fundamentals of International Transfer Pricing in Law and Economics written by Wolfgang Schön and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-02-15 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The taxation of multinational corporate groups has become a major concern in the academic and political debate on the future of international taxation. In particular the arm’s length standard for the determination of transfer prices is under increasing pressure. Many countries and international bodies are now taking a closer look at the use of transfer prices for profit shifting and are exploring alternative mechanisms such as formulary apportionment for the allocation of taxing rights. With regard to this topic, this volume is the first to offer a concise analysis of transfer pricing in the international tax arena from an interdisciplinary legal and economic point of view. Fundamentals such as the efficient allocation of resources within multi-unit firms and distortions between different goals of transfer pricing as well as different aspects of it in tax and corporate law, the traditional OECD approach and practical aspects concerning intangibles, capital and risk allocation are covered by outstanding authors.
Download or read book Internal Pricing written by Tim Baldenius and published by Now Publishers Inc. This book was released on 2009 with total page 107 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Internal Pricing surveys of the transfer pricing literature with a focus on commonly-used pricing schemes using incomplete contracting models. Chapter 2 develops the basic symmetric information model to compare the performance of cost-based and negotiated pricing in the absence of external input markets. Chapter 3 considers market-based pricing and the role of internal price adjustments; it ignores investments and focuses solely on trading incentives. Chapter 4 adds investments to the model of Chapter 3 and shows that investment opportunities further strengthen the case for internal adjustments. Chapter 5 reconsiders the initial analysis of Chapter 2 for the case of asymmetrically informed divisional managers. The book ends with the author's conclusions and an appendix including the mathematical proofs. A key theme running through Internal Pricing is that the firm's central office (i.e headquarters) plays a rather limited role in mediating individual transactions. This captures the stylized empirical fact that in most firms, headquarters designs the broad "rules of the game" by choosing a pricing mechanism and compensation contracts, but usually does not get involved in pricing on a product-by-product basis.

Download or read book Advanced Management Accounting written by Ahmed Riahi-Belkaoui and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2000-12-30 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing upon cost accounting, mathematics, operations research, economics, and the behavioral sciences, Riahi-Belkaoui answers the call for a unique, multifaceted approach to the study of management accounting. His goal: to enhance performance in the essential tasks of cost estimation, allocation, planning, control, and performance evaluation. He covers the traditional techniques, but expands into quantitative methods and applications, then extends further into the behavioral unification of these techniques. His book is state of the art, ingenious in the way it adapts quantitative methods' solutions to traditional cost accounting topics, and innovative in its use of the behavioral implications. The result is an important resource for professionals, academics, and upper-level students in the field. Riahi-Belkaoui arranges his various techniques chapter by chapter. First, he looks at cost allocation and then at cost-volume profit analysis under stochastic conditions. In Chapter three he treats regression for cost estimation; in Chapter Four, the learning curve for the same purpose. He takes up advanced planning analysis in Chapter Five, advanced control analysis in Chapter Six, and decentralizing and performance evaluation in Chapter Seven. He then finishes with an important discussion of transfer pricing.
