Transfer Pricing Services

In today’s global economy, international expansion is a critical growth strategy for businesses. At the same time, tax authorities around the world are allocating ever-growing resources to enforce transfer pricing laws.

Global Risk Management & Compliance Support

Bennett Thrasher’s Transfer Pricing professionals can help you navigate global risks and opportunities by providing the following services:

Controversy and Audit Support

We can defend transfer pricing positioning in domestic and foreign tax audits. We can also support you through Mutual Agreement Procedure and Competent Authority processes.

Planning

We can review or design your company’s policies related to the intercompany transfer of goods, services, and intangibles across borders. We do this by conducting value chain analyses, characterizing entities’ functional profiles, and determining appropriate pricing models.

Documentation

We can prepare transfer pricing documentation to evaluate the arm’s length character of intercompany transactions. We can prepare US documentation and documentation meeting BEPS requirements, including the Country-by-Country Report (CbCR), Master File and Local File.

Benchmarking and Valuation

We can identify appropriate arm’s length pricing for the transfers of tangible property, services, and intangible property (e.g., trade names, software rights, manufacturing know-how)

Intercompany Financing

We can perform debt capacity, creditworthiness, and interest rate benchmarking studies to determine appropriate intercompany financing arrangements.

Implementation

We can turn transfer pricing recommendations into actionable policies and procedures for ongoing operational purposes, financial reporting, and tax compliance.

Advance Pricing Agreements (APAs)

We can help you negotiate APAs with the IRS and foreign tax authorities to help you avoid future disputes.

Policies for Growth

Aligning Policies with Global Business Goals

Multinational businesses – including small and medium-sized companies – need a carefully thought-out transfer pricing policy that mitigates the risks of forced income adjustments and penalties. These policies also need to align with strategic business objectives – from improving cash flow and supply chain efficiency, to managing global effective tax rates and uncertain tax positions.

There are many ways to increase tax efficiency, and the policies that make sense today might not always be in your organization’s long-term best interest.

Our team will gain a thorough understanding of your company’s international activities, the transactions at play, and the long-term objectives of your organization. We will work with you to create an approach that is not only efficient and practical, but that also satisfies the relevant rules and regulations.
