Abstract: | This paper uses transaction cost economics (TCE) as the basis for an empirical study of transfer pricing in a multi-divisional firm. It is shown that transaction-specific investment and quality requirements increase the probability that headquarters will centrally administer the pricing between divisions. Accordingly, transaction-cost economizing also affects organization of exchange within firms, not only between firms. |
