<![CDATA[Conflicts emanating from transfer pricing have far-reaching consequences for interdivisional cooperation, sharing of information, goal congruence, employee motivation and performance. Few researchers have explicitly focused on the nature of transfer pricing conflict in organizations, particularly with respect to service organizations.
