| Abstract: | This paper explores the role of transfer prices as coordinating mechanisms within a firm. Three cases are analyzed and compared to show how quantity and effort are affected as assumptions on observability are progressively relaxed. The main results are: First, the optimal transfer price is standard average cost plus. Second, it is not necessarily decreasing in quantity unlike the downward sloping demand function. |
