Answer:

a. The minimum transfer price (per home) that Construction would be willing to accept would be $1,270

b. The maximum transfer price (per home) Island Evaluations would be willing to accept would be $1,300

Explanation:

a. According to the given data If Construction accepts the proposal of Island Evaluations, then it has to foregone the profits which could have been earned if Construction accepted the proposal of local villagers to build an incline, a bridge and a campground.

Hence, minimum transfer price (per home) for Construction should be such that it covers the profit foregone as given above:

Now, profit foregone is calculated as per the table below:

Figures in $

Particulars Revenue Cost Profit

Incline        1400          600 800

Bridge         1500 950  550

Campground 2700 1200 1500

Total        5600 2750 2850

Therefore, the transfer price should be such which can generate a profit of $2,850 for Construction.

Therefore, total revenue which should be generated = Cost of building five new homes + Profit foregone

= 700*5 + 2850 = $6,350

Hence, minimum transfer price (per home) should be = 6350/5 = $1,270

b. The maximum transfer price (per home) that Island Evaluations will be willing to accept is $1,300 per home as quoted by the external competitor from another island.
