Decision on transfer pricing
Materials used by the Instrument Division of XPort Industries are currently purchased from outside suppliers at a cost of $249 per unit.

Assume that a transfer price of $237 has been established and that 25,200 units of materials are transferred, with no reduction in the Components Division’s current sales.
