Transfer Pricing Dilemma Arm's Length VS Formulary apportionment. Is there an...Lorenzo Mondin
This document summarizes a thesis presentation on transfer pricing approaches. It discusses the arm's length principle versus formulary apportionment, outlines the current OECD, US, and Brazil transfer pricing systems, and concludes that while no single approach is optimal, developing economies may initially adopt formulary apportionment to establish transfer pricing expertise before transitioning to an arm's length system.

China's transfer pricing system has developed significantly in recent years. The key points are:
1) China established its transfer pricing legal framework in 1991 and strengthened the laws in 2007, adopting the arm's length principle.
2) Transfer pricing audits were initially focused on tangible goods but now include intangibles, services, and equity shares. Guidelines were issued in 2009 and audit cases have increased annually.
3) Bilateral and multilateral APAs have been signed to provide certainty, with the first report issued in 2010. A "three in one" anti-avoidance system was created involving administration, services, and investigation.
4) Special considerations for Chinese factors include location savings, market premium,

International Indirect Tax survival in a global supply chain Alex Baulf
The profitability of a business is directly impacted by how its supply chain makes and delivers goods, as well as by how that supply chain is structured to minimize trade and tax expenses
Economic and technical developments drive change for businesses. As a business moves through its own life cycle ,the supply chain will also evolve, as procurement, manufacturing and distribution strategies change.
The pace of change in the international tax environment is accelerating, as governments and tax administrations get to grips with BEPS. These developments will require businesses to react on a strategic and organisational level.
Such changes invariably have an impact on VAT/GST and customs obligations. As the business reacts to changes in the external environment, it needs to revisit the design and operation of the supply chain at transaction level.
This thought leadership from Grant Thornton explores both the indirect tax supply chain life cycle and the challenges, risks and opportunities at every stage within the supply chain.
The document discusses supply chain management. It defines supply chain management as the integration of business processes from original suppliers to end users to add value for customers. A supply chain is a network of facilities that procures materials, transforms them into products, and distributes the products to customers. The essential features of supply chain management include integrated behavior across stakeholders, mutually sharing information and risks/rewards, cooperation, focusing on serving customers, integrating processes, and building long-term relationships. The objectives, components, factors influencing, and functions of supply chain management at the strategic, tactical, and operational levels are described.
The document discusses supply chain management (SCM). It defines SCM as the management of relationships between suppliers, manufacturers, warehouses, distribution centers, and customers to deliver value to customers at a low cost. The goal of SCM is to optimize efficiency through integrating these entities. The document also describes how SCM has evolved from a "push" model driven by forecasts to a "pull" model driven by actual customer demand.
A supply chain is the network of organizations involved in producing and delivering a product, from raw materials to the end customer. It includes upstream suppliers, internal production and packaging, and downstream distribution centers and retailers. Effective supply chain management coordinates activities across this network to optimize material, information and financial flows. Key goals are reducing costs and uncertainties while improving customer service. Modern supply chains leverage information technology to facilitate coordination and information sharing among partners.

Presentation on the development of a P3O Information Management system for Translink. Includes visual demonstration.
Translink is responsible for planning and delivering a diverse portfolio of programmes and projects to maintain and enhance its bus and rail fleet, railway infrastructure, passenger and engineering facilities and business systems.
Having already established a P3O organisational framework, Translink’s PMO identified the need for a new Information Management system to support integrated portfolio, programme and project management activities and performance to enable business change.
The system also needed to be capable of managing an increasing portfolio of projects and users as well as assuring real time data management and ‘single truth’ for reporting.
Translink’s P3O IM system now supports the management of a portfolio of over 800+ projects and expenditure of £200-£300 million+ per annum.

Implementing a Complex Supply Chain Planning Process at Bloom EnergyJade Global
Implementing Highly Complex Supply Chain Planning Process at Bloom Energy [BUS1813].
