Gain a better understanding of the basic principles of transfer pricing, including recent developments, tools, and current issues.
Many small-to medium-sized (SME) firms are not familiar with transfer pricing. Often, they are unaware of the penalty protections provided by contemporaneous transfer pricing documentation, unfamiliar with the requirements needed for documentation, underestimate expensive transfer pricing penalties, and are unfamiliar with the process of a transfer pricing audit. This topic provides an overview of transfer pricing concepts, transfer pricing documentation and recent court cases in the United States, a review of the IRS' transfer pricing examination process (TPEP) as well as best practices to ensure consistency between the transfer pricing documentation, intercompany pricing policies, and the tax return.
