The Brief
What you'll do, and what you'll demonstrate.
How should the firm set internal transfer prices for EV components across three jurisdictions to satisfy tax authorities while preserving divisional accountability and motivation?
This is not a data exercise. It is the work an analyst does when stakeholders need answers from messy data. That distinction matters to every hiring manager who has seen candidates describe statistical methods and none who have extracted insight from messy, real-world data.
When you finish, you will have something most graduates do not: a real-world deliverable, verified by Ewance, that you can show to a hiring manager and say "I did this. Here is the proof."
Earning criteria — what you'll demonstrate
- Apply transfer pricing theory (cost-based, market-based, negotiated) to a multinational setting
- Analyze tension between tax optimization, goal congruence, and divisional autonomy
- Evaluate behavioral consequences of accounting choices on managerial decisions
- Integrate contingency factors (regulation, IP location) into control system design
