(2) Determination

(A) As to the part of the OOO for the special reward

However, Article 44(4) of the Enforcement Decree of the Corporate Tax Act applies only to cases where it is deemed that the act of trade lacks economic rationality in light of the payment of retirement allowances from the standpoint of the payment of retirement allowances to the general employees. Determination of whether economic rationality exists shall be based on whether the trade lacks economic rationality in light of sound social norms or commercial practices, taking into account the various circumstances of the trade (see, e.g., Supreme Court Decision 2005Du14257, Dec. 13, 2007).

In addition, Article 26 of the Corporate Tax Act provides that "the amount deemed excessive or unreasonable as prescribed by the Presidential Decree shall not be included in the calculation of losses for each business year of a domestic corporation." Article 43 of the Enforcement Decree of the Corporate Tax Act provides that "the amount in excess of the amount paid by the corporation to its officers according to the articles of incorporation, the general meeting of shareholders or the resolution of the board of directors concerning the inclusion of bonuses in the calculation of losses shall not be included in the calculation of losses." Paragraph (3) provides that "the amount in excess of the amount paid by the corporation to officers or employees who are the controlling shareholders (including persons in special relations; hereinafter the same shall apply) shall not be included in the calculation of losses if the amount in excess of the amount paid by the corporation to officers or employees who are not the controlling shareholders, etc., such excess amount shall not be included in the calculation of losses." Paragraph (4) provides that "the amount paid by the corporation to officers or employees who are not part-time employees shall not be included in the calculation of losses."

B) Meanwhile, Article 44(4) of the Enforcement Decree of the Corporate Tax Act provides that "the amount in excess of the amount falling under any of the following subparagraphs shall not be included in the calculation of losses among the retirement benefits paid to an employee by a corporation shall not be included in the calculation of losses." Article 44(4) of the Enforcement Decree provides that "where the amount to be paid as retirement benefits (including retirement benefits, etc.) is determined by the articles of incorporation," "the amount stipulated in the articles of incorporation" shall be the amount under Article 20(1)1 (a) and (b) of the Income Tax Act (excluding non-taxable income under Article 12 of the same Act), but the amount not included in the calculation of losses pursuant to Article 43 shall be the amount equivalent to 1/10 of the total amount of retirement benefits paid to the relevant employee for one year retroactively from the date of retirement of the employee, and Article 44(5)1 of the same Act provides that "where the relevant officer fails to pay retirement benefits when he/she becomes an employee, the period of service may be included in the amount delegated by the articles of incorporation."

In addition to the contents and purport of the above-mentioned provision, the reason for recognizing the provision on the payment of retirement allowances for officers stipulated in the articles of incorporation as the basis for the inclusion of the corporation’s retirement allowances in deductible expenses is that the articles of incorporation requires strict procedures for amendment of the articles of incorporation under Article 433 of the Commercial Act in order to increase the retirement allowances. Thus, it is reasonable to view that the corporation’s payment of retirement allowances for officers is a specific method of retirement allowance or a specific provision on retirement allowance under the articles of incorporation for each officer’s voluntary and repetitive application of the above-mentioned provision as the standard for retirement allowance under Article 44(4)1 or (5) of the Enforcement Decree of the Corporate Tax Act, since there is a lack of economic rationality in light of the sound social norms and commercial practice.

2) In light of the above legal principles, the following circumstances, i.e., the majority shareholder holding 40% of the Plaintiff’s shares since 193 (50% if the Plaintiff’s shares were combined) who held 40% of the Plaintiff’s shares, continued to serve as the Plaintiff’s representative director from 198 to 20 December 20, 2010, which are currently subject to BB’s resignation from the office of representative director, are the current status of 3B’s employment as a sole representative director. In light of the fact that this case’s provision provides that “B” as a full-time director after the resignation of 1st 2nd 30th 2nd 2nd 1st 201, as well as that it appears that this case’s provision was applicable to 1st 5th 2nd 2nd 2nd 2nd 2nd 3rd 200 2nd 2nd 2nd 3rd 2011.

(3) Sub-determination

Therefore, the instant retirement allowance provision cannot be deemed to fall under the case where the articles of incorporation set the amount to be paid as retirement benefits under Article 44(4)1 of the Enforcement Decree of the Corporate Tax Act or the case where there is a separate provision for payment of retirement benefits delegated by the articles of incorporation under Article 44(5) of the Enforcement Decree of the Corporate Tax Act. Thus, the instant disposition that the Defendant excluded the Plaintiff from the deductible expenses for the non-deductible or the special bonus for non-deductible of the retirement allowance under Article 44(4)2 of the Enforcement Decree of the Corporate Tax Act is legitimate.

3. Conclusion

Therefore, the plaintiff's claim is dismissed as it is without merit, and the judgment of the court of first instance is just in conclusion, and the plaintiff's appeal is dismissed as it is without merit.
