A principle of technology valuation is that the optimum value of a technology transferred (in/out) is a fair percentage of the cash flow generated by the competitive advantage of the technology (sold/purchased). Of course, what is fair, how to estimate cash flow and how to measure competitive advantage are vexing issues. Not to mention defining the technology being considered. For a good discussion of this topic, see this article from PLI by Mark A. Peterson.
