Describe the lowest internal transfer price that an autonomous division manager of an investment center would consider accepting for a product that his/her division produces


The lowest price that an investment center manager should ever consider is the one that would leave his/her performance evaluation measures unaffected. Typically, this would be the price that maintains divisional profits at the level that existed prior to acceptance of the internal transfer. This price should be no lower than the total of the selling segment's incremental costs associated with the services/goods plus the opportunity cost of the facilities used.
