Tron Products, Incorporated has a Pump Division that
manufactures and sells a number of products, including a standard
pump that could be used by another division in the company, the
Pool Products Division, in one of its products. Data concerning
that pump appear below:
The Pool Products Division is currently purchasing 4,000 of
these pumps per year from an overseas supplier at a cost of $94 per
pump.
Assume that the Valve Division is selling all of the valves it
can produce to outside customers. Also assume that $3 in variable
expenses can be avoided on transfers within the company due to
reduced shipping and selling costs. Does there exist a transfer
price that would make both the Valve and Pump Division financially
better off than if the Pump Division were to continue buying its
valves from the outside supplier?
