Business Definition for: Transfer Price
- the price at which goods or services are transferred between different units of the same company. If those units are located in different countries, the term international transfer pricing is used.
The extent to which the transfer price covers costs and contributes to (internal) profit is a matter of policy. A transfer price may, for example, be based upon marginal cost, full cost, market price or negotiation. Where the transferred products cross national boundaries, the transfer prices used may have to be agreed with the governments of the countries concerned.
