A chapter in Technology Pricing, 1989, pp 183-187 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Technical knowledge, defined as a body of data and rights necessary for the production of goods, is the subject of transactions. The supplier firm (or licensor) and the recipient firm (or licensee) may or may not be in the same industry — i.e., companies carrying out the same activity on different markets. We became interested in this type of transaction in order to study how prices for the transfer of technical knowledge are determined. In order to do this, we have had to concentrate exclusively on transfers between firms which are financially independent from each other, considering the bias which may intervene in the determination of prices between parent companies and their subsidiaries.
