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 External and Internal Pricing in Multidivisional Firms written by Tim Baldenius and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 43 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Multidivisional firms frequently rely on external market prices in order to value internal transactions across profit centers. This paper examines the transfer pricing problem in a setting in which an upstream division has monopoly power in selling a proprietary component both to a downstream division within the same firm and to external customers. When internal transfers are valued at the prevailing market price, the resulting transactions are distorted by double marginalization. We ask whether the imposition of intracompany discounts can alleviate or even eliminate the effects of double marginalization. When the production capacity of the upstream division is effectively unconstrained, we find that discounts will increase the firm's overall profit only under certain conditions. At the same time, it is impossible for any discount rule to induce prices and sales quantities that fully maximize the firm's corporate profit. In contrast, if the production capacity of the selling division is constrained, suitably chosen discounts will always improve the firm's overall profit relative to a policy under which internal transfers are valued at the market price. With constrained capacity, we identify conditions under which discounts set inversely to the external price elasticity of demand can fully eliminate the double marginalization problem and thereby achieve efficient decentralization.

Download or read book Modern Product Costing Technique in the Age of Competition written by Romeo G. Manalo and published by eBookIt.com. This book was released on 2011-03-24 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses an important issue -- the nature of and evidence for success in the transfer costing of internal services or shared services or products within a company. The case of activity-based costing (ABC) is used to explore how the proponents have developed a framework linking Quality, Cost and Delivery (QCD) components of products and services.The QCD performance indices, which are the natural properties of products and services, will form part of the Service Level Agreements between the internal service providers (Shared Services Centers) and internal customers (Profit Centers) of the company. This framework optimizes the use of overhead expenses to the end products of the company.This book also discusses the various cost components of the products and services using the full absorption costing principle. It is a revolutionary idea in the sense that all activity costs are considered variable costs and product costs come from activity costs using various cost drivers.The Principal Component Analysis (PCA), the multi-variate statistical tool, is applied using SPSS to analyze which independent variables contribute significantly to the Product Unit Price (PUP) and which should be given more emphasis in decision making process.

Download or read book Purpose Driven Pricing written by Saloni Firasta-Vastani and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-07-29 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pricing is frequently used as a key strategic lever for management to increase profitability. However, price can also be used as a lever for societal good. This book demonstrates how effective use of price can have positive societal impacts, such as helping to reduce carbon emissions, accelerating the adoption of eco-friendly products, and improving people’s health outcomes and quality of life. This book, written by two leading thinkers on pricing strategy and practice, makes the important link between the ideals of purpose in organizations and the crucial tools of how to implement change using one of the fundamental levers at the disposal of the organization. It introduces the concept of leveraging the power of pricing for both profit and societal good and then clearly explains how it can be done. Price can be used to manage demand, incentivize consumer behavior, and influence change. The impact can be effective and quick, and it is not far-fetched to say that pro-social pricing can be utilized to preserve the environment, educate citizens, promote arts, alleviate poverty, and improve health. The book outlines how corporations, governments, civil society organizations, and collaborators can use pricing power to manage the adoption of products and services across B2B and B2C. Pricing strategies include innovating, unbundling, unpackaging, collaborating, implementing new monetization models, and applying learnings from behavioral pricing. Executives of corporate and business strategy and those dealing with brand portfolios, sustainability, social and health equity will find profound insights in this book. It will also be valuable in executive training and for graduate students.

Download or read book Corporate Strategy in Post Communist Russia written by Mikhail Glazunov and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-05-12 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Russian businesses in the post-Soviet period have been noted for their unusual, sometimes allegedly corrupt, business practices, and for their role in the enrichment of oligarchs. This book, which includes a wide range of case study examples, and which draws on the author’s first-hand experience of running a Russian company, argues that a key to understanding contemporary Russian business is the importance of arbitrage, that is the ability to take advantage of price and cost differentials in different markets. The book argues that the conditions for such arbitrage advantages are often created by businesses which have special links to particular institutions; that arbitrage benefits are not available to all businesses in a sector, thereby providing unfair competitive advantages to some businesses; and that businesses’ overall activities are often distorted by this system. The book includes an analysis of a wide range of different types of arbitrage activities in action.
Download or read book Green Accounting written by Peter Bartelmus and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-01-12 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This title was first published in 2003. Our cherished economic indicators of income, product, consumption and capital fail in taking a long-term view of social progress. They do not account for environmental deterioration, which impairs the quality of life of present and future generations, and hence the sustainability of development. "Greening" the conventional national (and corporate) accounts introduces environmental impacts and costs into these accounts and balances. The result is a new compass for steering the economy towards sustainability, which may change not only our main measures of economic performance but also the basic tenets of environmental and resource policies. This book presents methodological advances and case studies of environmental accounting, and discusses their use in environmental management and policies. In their introduction, the editors provide a critical perspective of historical developments and current debates.
