The supplying division supplies milk, the main ingredient, to the processing division. Jamal is an ambitious entrepreneur, and he is hoping to soon sell CoolTime, which is a private company, to one of the larger competitors. The supplying division buys milk from local farmers for $$3$ per $10$ gallons, and incurs $$2$ of variable costs per $10$ gallons transported to the processing division $($the supplying division doesn't incur any material fixed costs$).$ The processing division could buy milk of the same high quality for $$8$ per $10$ gallons on the outside market. Jamal is trying to "whip his company into shape" by implementing a transfer pricing system that he views as providing very strong incentives for the two divisions to work hard: The supplying division will get reimbursed for its incremental costs of supplying the milk to the processing division; the processing division is charged the price that it would have to pay on the open market.
