Introduction of Transfer Pricing<\/strong><\/h5>\n

Transfer pricing is an accounting practice that represents the price that one division in a company\/country charges another division in a company\/counry for goods or services provided. As reference to Transfer Pricing Guideline 2012 in Malaysia and s.140A of Income Tax Act, a transfer price should be at its arm’s length price, which is the market price one charges to another division, subsidiary, or holding company for services rendered.
\nIn recent years, companies have used inter-company transfer pricing to benefit from tax in different jurisdictions. For instance, company may charge a higher price to division in high-tax countries (reducing profit) while charging a lower price (increasing profits) for divisions in low-tax countries.<\/p>\n

\n
Transfer Pricing Guideline<\/strong><\/h5>\n

Malaysian Transfer Pricing make reference to Malaysian Transfer Pricing Guideline 2012. <\/a>The overall stance of the Malaysian Guidelines is to provide guidance for an examination of transfer prices in accordance with Section 140A of the Act.
\nThe Malaysian Guidelines are largely based on the OECD Guidelines, with specific modifications to ensure adherence to the Act, the procedures of the Malaysian tax authority and domestic circumstances.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

5 Methodologies for Transfer Pricing<\/strong><\/h5>\n

Under the Transfer Pricing Guidelines 2012, there are 5 different methodologist which company can use:-<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Comparable Uncontrolled Price (CUP) method<\/li>\n
  2. Resale Price method<\/li>\n
  3. Cost Plus method<\/li>\n
  4. Profit Split method<\/li>\n
  5. Transactional Net Margin method (TNMM)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
    \n
    Comparable Uncontrolled Price (CUP) Method<\/strong><\/h5>\n

    There are 2 different CUP :
    \n(a) internal CUP;
    \n(b) external CUP.
    \nInternal CUP is to compare the price of product that sold by taxpayer and to a third party distributor.
    \nExternal CUP is to compare competitor that are selling similar product as the taxpayer, and the price sold to third party distributor.
    \nThe CUP method is the most direct and reliable way to apply the arm\u2019s length principle to a controlled transaction. However, it is often difficult to find a transaction that is sufficiently comparable to a controlled transaction. Therefore, this method is used only when there reliable available data.<\/p>\n

    \n
    Resale Price Method<\/strong><\/h5>\n

    The Resale Price Method is also known as the \u201cResale Minus Method.\u201d It is comparison of prices between distributor A sells to third party client and distributor B sells to third party client. Both distributors got the products from manufacturer at market value.
    \nOften the comparison have this characteristic. For example, distributor A got the product from manufacturer A which both companies are related parties. Distributor B got the products from manufacturer B which both are independent.<\/p>\n

    \n
    Cost Plus Method<\/strong><\/h5>\n

    It is comparison between the mark-up margin of the products incurred by manufacturer A to distributor A which both companies under same owner and the mark-up margin of the products of manufacturer B to distributor B which both are independent.<\/p>\n

    \n
    Profit Split Method<\/strong><\/h5>\n

    It is determined whether the allocation of profit to A, B and C companies is reasonable to build a product by comparing the contribution of\u00a0 resources or materials from A, B and C companies.<\/p>\n

    \n
    Transactional Net Margin Method (TNMM)<\/strong><\/h5>\n

    This is the most commonly used metholody in Transfer Pricing. It compares the revenue, cost of goods sold, gross profit, net profit, gross profit margin of the company A with other similar size of companies.
    \nThe Malaysia Inland Revenue Board generally accepts a single most appropriate transfer pricing methodology in arriving at the arm\u2019s length value by selecting the method that requires the fewest adjustments and provides the most reliable measure of the arm\u2019s length result.<\/p>\n

    \n

    Justification on Transfer Pricing is compulsory if the Company in Malaysia has related party transactions. It is a disclosure requirement in the Company’s tax return form.
