Can the performance evaluation measures (for autonomous subunit managers) create goal congruence problems in transfer pricing situations? Explain
Yes, at times, performance-based incentives can conflict with overall organizational goals. The situation is the worst when upper level managers look at the performance of subunit managers in a comparative fashion. In this case, before transacting with another internal segment, each manager needs to determine how the transaction would affect his/her performance evaluation measure relative to the performance evaluation measure of the other transacting party.
