| Abstract [eng] |
The analysis of theoretical and empirical researches on transfer pricing was performed in the dissertation. This analysis enabled to distinguish the main transfer pricing areas and to define and supplement the transfer pricing concept. Based on the transfer pricing researches performed by foreign scientists and transfer pricing legislation the transfer pricing model was created and presented in the dissertation. This model can be applied by the tax payers who needs to determine the arm’s length transfer prices in practise (e.g. for sale of goods, provision of services, loans and other inter-company transactions) and for tax administrators who are controlling the compliance of transfer prices with the arm’s length principle in order to ensure that corporate profit tax is paid correctly to the state budget. The transfer pricing model can be used for various inter-company transactions (e.g. sales of goods, services, loans, etc.) for tax payers acting in various industries in countries where OECD guidelines are applied (including Lithuania). Moreover, evaluating the effectiveness of transfer pricing regulation in Lithuania the research was performed. Performing this research the author calculated and compared the taxable income to be received applying the arm’s length principle and the alternative principle – the formulary apportionment. Such research was performed the first time in Lithuania. |
