Question:
Recently, a maintenance facility opened in Malaysia. That facility proposed to Cargo Division that it could conduct the maintenance in Malaysia. The facility proposed a price of $42 million for the services that Maintenance Division in Hong Kong provided to Cargo Division. Maple management estimated that had the services been provided in New Zealand, the costs for the year would have totaled $59 million. In its latest tax filing, Maple assigned the $59 million as the appropriate transfer price Cargo paid for the services from Maintenance. The New Zealand tax authorities denied that expense and instead applied $42 million as the appropriate transfer price.
