Abstract

Transfer pricing can lead to conflicts between divisions. This is because the seller tends to charge a higher transfer price than the buyer. Therefore, this study examines whether the type of leadership and compensation scheme can influence the seller’s transfer price decision to approach an equal profit. This study uses a 2x2 factorial design experimental method on the leadership type variable (supportive vs. non-supportive) and compensation scheme variable (high bonus percentage vs. low bonus percentage). This study indicates that sellers will set transfer prices close to equal profits when under supportive leadership. This is because the type of supportive leadership supports a collaborative work climate and focuses on achieving common goals. In addition, the seller will charge a transfer price close to the equal profit when the compensation scheme has a low bonus percentage. The low bonus percentage is not strong enough to bring out the egocentrism of the seller. The influence of a compensation scheme with a standard bonus percentage will be more substantial if a supportive leadership type supports it. This study provides knowledge to companies to formulate effective strategies to reduce transfer price negotiation conflicts by considering the kind of leadership and compensation schemes.
