Chapter 6 in The Multinational Corporation, 1980, pp 137-158 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract This paper intends to review some of the main problems which arise for developing host countries in the investigation of transfer-pricing of commodity trade by transnational corporations (TNCs) in manufacturing industry. It concentrates on the pricing of intra-firm trade (i.e. trade between associated units of a company operating in several countries), but part of the analysis will also be relevant to the pricing of inter-firm trade (between unrelated parties) by TNCs in developing countries.
