- Documentation of the approach
We have grouped our services into packages, the use of which we charge a flat-rate package price. The costs vary depending on the approach you wish to take. The fee amounts and package prices are net amounts and are increased by the statutory VAT.
– Financial Backdate: Current benchmarks are based on pre-recession financial data and therefore do not provide sufficient guidance for setting arm's length transfer prices during a crisis. By "backdating" the financial figures to past times of crisis, you can obtain a realistic representation in the context of a global economic crisis. Fee: 1.500 Euro.
– Data Simulation: Benchmark studies are usually based on a small number of comparable companies in the "final set", from which a range of arm's length prices and margins is derived. Such small data sets have a higher statistical sensitivity for special effects due to the higher dispersion compared to large data sets. It can be assumed that large data sets tend to underestimate crisis effects. With our database simulation we draw samples based on large data sets and can thus simulate crisis effects even for smaller comparison groups. As a result, we obtain a final set of comparable companies whose financial figures take crisis effects into account. Fee: 4.000 Euro
Package Financial Backdate + Data Simulation: Fee: 4.950 Euro.
– If required, we supplement Financial Backdate and Data Simulation with a regression analysis to empirically determine correlations and interdependencies between individual financial data. This will involve accessing a large amount of sector or industry-specific data to model a statistical correlation between turnover and profitability. Fee from 5.000 Euro.
