Enterprise X manufactures pianos in Malaysia. Enterprise Y distributes these from Hong Kong. Both X and Y are 100% owned by Enterprise Z. When selling pianos on the market, Z has no control on the price at which one piano is sold. Reason is that prices are set by supply and demand. Currently, the market price for one piano is USD 5,000. However, Z does control all transactions between X and Y. X is taxed in Malaysia and Y is taxed in Hong Kong. The corporate tax rate in Hong Kong is 16.5%. In Malaysia, it is 25%. The direct / indirect costs of manufacturing one piano are USD 1,000.
Consider two scenarios. Scenario 1: The price X charges Y, for the supply of one piano, is similar to the market price USD 4,000. Scenario 2: X charges Y a non-market price of USD 2,000.

- Ahnuld Corporation, a health juice producer, recently expanded its sales through exports to foreign markets. Earlier this year, the company negotiated the sale of several thousand cases of turnip juice to a retailer in the country of Tcheckia. The customer is unwilling to assume the risk of having to pay in U.S. dollars. Desperate to enter the Tcheckian market, the vice president for international sales agrees to denominate the sale in tchecks, the national currency of Tcheckia. The current exchange rate for 1 tcheck is $2.00. In addition, the customer indicates that it cannot pay until it sells all of the juice. Payment of 100,000 tchecks is scheduled for six months from the date of sale.Fearful that the tcheck might depreciate in value over the next six months, the head of the risk management department at Ahnuld Corporation enters into a forward contract to sell tchecks in six months at a forward rate of $1.80.
