PODCAST: Effective Transfer Pricing

We discuss effective transfer pricing within organizations, highlighting the prevalent challenges and proposing solutions. The core issue is that poorly implemented internal pricing leads to suboptimal economic decisions, resource allocation problems, and interdepartmental conflict. The hosts advocate for market-based pricing over cost recovery, emphasizing the importance of clear price signals for efficient resource allocation and accurate decision-making. They stress the need for service level agreements, fair cost allocation, and a comprehensive process to manage the political and emotional aspects of internal pricing, ultimately aiming for improved organizational performance and profitability.

PODCAST: A strategic take on cost-volume-profit analysis
Our Spotify podcast highlights that despite familiarity, most managers do not apply CVP analysis and get it wrong in its most basic form.
The hosts explain cost-volume-profit (CVP) analysis, a crucial business tool often misapplied. It details the theoretical underpinnings of CVP, using graphs to illustrate relationships between price, volume, and profit. The hosts highlight common errors in CVP application, such as neglecting volume changes after price increases, leading to the “margin-price-volume death spiral.” The hosts offer practical advice and strategic questions to improve CVP analysis and decision-making, emphasizing the need for accurate costing and a nuanced understanding of market dynamics. Finally, the podcast provides case studies illustrating both successful and unsuccessful CVP implementations.
