D. Determination
1) Whether the income equivalent to the penalty is attributed to the Plaintiff
In light of the economic aspect, taxable income should be deemed as realizing the income subject to taxation under the Income Tax Act, inasmuch as the legal evaluation of the causal relationship in which income is derived is not always lawful and effective, and even if illegal income is caused by criminal act, it constitutes taxable income unless a taxpayer returns it to the person to whom it belongs, and if a taxpayer does not return it to the original person after receiving the money due to criminal act, it should be deemed as having already been realizing the income (see, e.g., Supreme Court Decision 2002Du431, May 10, 2002). In this case, it is reasonable to see that the Plaintiff was a contracting party to the instant contract with the ECE’s stocks and management right delegation, and that the Plaintiff did not transfer the purchaser status under the instant contract with the EEF, and that the Plaintiff did not have any obligation to pay taxes to the Plaintiff under the premise that it had already been established at the time of the 2nd purchase contract with the ECE, and that the Plaintiff did not have any obligation to pay taxes to the Plaintiff or the ECC’s shares.
2) Whether the penalty returned to the FF is deducted
The Plaintiff and JeonF agreed to reduce the penalty of KRW 000 on March 27, 2008 to KRW 000, and around that time, the Plaintiff returned the penalty of KRW 000 to JeonF, as seen earlier, and according to the agreement on reduction of penalty among the penalty of KRW 000, which the Plaintiff received from JeonF, it is reasonable to view that the Plaintiff’s return of KRW 000,000,000, which is the remainder after deducting the amount as unrealized income, is subject to income tax. Therefore, global income tax to be paid by the Plaintiff is KRW 00,00,000, which is an additional tax notice according to the judgment of the attached tax calculation table, and is unlawful.
3) Whether the deposit amount is recognized as necessary expenses
In imposing global income tax on other income, the total amount of income must be the expense directly corresponding to the total amount of income in order to be recognized as the necessary expense to be deducted from the total amount of income, and when it is recognized that certain assets have been used or consumed in the course of contributing to the creation of the total amount of subscription, the monetary value of the amount of use shall be deducted as necessary expenses. In this case, health class and recognized facts in this case, and at the same time, the deposit amount claimed by the Plaintiff as necessary expenses is the amount calculated by calculating interest on the premise that the Plaintiff is the 00 won borrowed money, and the deposit amount is the amount calculated by calculating interest on the premise that the Plaintiff is the 00 won received from the fixedCC, and it is difficult to regard the above deposit amount as the expenses used or consumed by the Plaintiff for receiving penalty from the total amount of income, and it is difficult for the Plaintiff
3. Conclusion
If so, the plaintiff's claim of this case is accepted within the above scope of recognition, while the plaintiff's claim of this case is dismissed as it is without merit, and it is judged like the order.
