Abstract
This conceptual paper focuses the problem of dividing the profit earned in a production network to the different network members. In this context different theoretical approaches for profit division are introduced and discussed. It is assumed that a high degree of automation is aimed at by using the modern information and communication technology (ICT) intensively. The task of profit division is integrated in a comprehensive approach considering incentive and sanction mechanisms for harmonising the interests of the network members as well. In that context the basic assumptions of the New Institutional Economics serve as a theoretic basis.
