2. Whether the part concerning the revocation of the disposition imposing corporate tax for the business year 2005 exceeding KRW 199,077,497 among the lawsuit in this case is legitimate

According to the reasoning of the above disposition, the portion exceeding KRW 199,077,497 of the corporate tax belonging to the business year 2005, Feb. 2, 2009 exceeds KRW 203,59,270, and exceeds KRW 199,07,497 of the corporate tax belonging to the business year 2005 was already extinguished by reduction revision. Thus, the claim for revocation of the corporate tax belonging to the business year 2005, exceeding KRW 199,07,

3. Whether each of the dispositions of this case (excluding the above dismissal part) is legitimate

A. The plaintiff company's assertion

1) In accordance with the notice of the change in corporate tax imposition and income amount for the business year 2005

A) Of the labor cost of June 27, 200, 265,660,000 won which the Defendant denied, the Defendant paid 137,70,000 won for unpaid labor cost of April 30, 2005 and 127,960,000 won for unpaid labor cost of May 31, 2005. The Plaintiff Company paid 362,571,540 won out of the construction cost of 362,571,540 won, which was paid by the principal contractor on June 27, 2005, to the Defendant’s construction site of apartment apartment, and paid 137,70,000 won for unpaid labor cost of May 31, 2005. The Plaintiff Company was unlawful in performing the above labor cost of 362,571,540 won, which was paid by the principal contractor on June 27, 2005.

B) Of the labor cost of 164,740,000 won as of August 9, 2005, the Defendant denied the above labor cost of 124,740,000 won, 124,740,000 won, which was actually incurred at the construction site of △△ apartment, and paid the unpaid labor cost of June 30, 2005. Although 163,598,440 won out of the deposited money from the corporate head of △△ apartment, which was remitted from the corporate head of the Plaintiff company to the △B account through the EE account, the money was transferred to the △B account, but 160,000,000 won on the same day, and the Defendant was presumed to have been used at the corporate head of the Tong because there was no evidence to verify the fact that it was used in connection with the corporate affairs, the burden of proof is unlawful for the Defendant to deny this part of the above labor cost.

C) If the Plaintiff Company denied the labor cost on June 27, 2005 and August 9, 2005, the Plaintiff Company completed the construction cost of KRW 630 million within the limit of KRW 300,000,000,000, which shall be considered as the labor cost of KRW 300,000,000,000, and this part of the disposition that denied each of the above labor cost is unlawful against the real relationship

2) In accordance with the notice of change in the business year income amount in 2007

The Plaintiff Company entered into a construction contract at the end of 2007, which had no particular performance. In order to be favorable to the credit assessment of the bank at the time, it appropriated the price of the said construction contract in excess of the annual sales in 2007. In order to meet the cost rate for this, labor costs were additionally appropriated, but the amount equivalent to the above labor costs is not leaked outside of the company, but merely handled only in the accounts. Therefore, this part of the disposition based on the premise that the amount equivalent to the above labor costs was leaked outside of the company is unlawful.

(b) Related statutes;

It is the same as the entry of the attached statutes.

C. Determination

1) Whether the disposition of imposing corporate tax for the business year 2005 and the notice of change in the amount of income is legitimate

A) Barring special circumstances, the act of the representative director, etc., who is the actual manager of a corporation to divert the corporation’s funds is not based on the premise of recovery from the beginning, and thus, constitutes an outflow from the company as an expenditure itself. As to special circumstances that cannot be deemed as not premised on recovery from the utilization time, the determination should be made individually and specifically by taking into account all the circumstances, including where the intent of the representative director, etc. is identical to the intent of the corporation or where it is difficult to deem that the corporate economic interest is in fact identical with the representative director, etc. through the actual status of the corporation, such as the representative director, etc., who is the principal manager of the embezzlement, the degree of control over the corporation, the circumstances leading to the embezzlement, and the measures taken by the corporation after embezzlement, etc.

B) In full view of the overall purport of the arguments in evidence Nos. 2 and 12, Eul evidence Nos. 5-1, 2, 3, and Eul evidence Nos. 6, and Eul evidence No. 5-1, 2, 3, and Eul evidence No. 6, the plaintiff company included KRW 362,571,540, which was remitted to EE’s account on June 27, 2005, in the name of labor cost. However, the above money again was remitted to E-B’s account and red account. ② The plaintiff included KRW 163,598,40, which was remitted to E-B’s account on August 9, 2005, but the above money was again deposited to E-B’s account. Thus, it is reasonable to view that the money paid under the name of labor cost was actually used for the actual purpose of payment of labor cost, as stated in each of the above facts, and the corporation appropriated the amount of the plaintiff’s processed labor cost as long as it was transferred to HoBD account.

D) Therefore, the Plaintiff Company’s argument is without merit, and each processing labor cost is not included in deductible expenses for the business year 2005, and the imposition of corporate tax for the business year 2005 and the notice of change in income amount are lawful.

2) Whether notice of change in income amount in the business year 2007 is proper

A) In light of the purport of the entire pleadings in the evidence Nos. 2, 9, and 5-1, 2, 3, and 6-1, 5-2, 5-3, and 6, the Plaintiff Company shall include the labor cost of KRW 1,923,680,00 which was not actually paid in the business year 2007 as the processing work cost was paid by the representative director as if the above processing labor cost was paid by the representative director and the advance payment. Thus, even if there was no amount leaked to the outside of the company in the process of including the above processing labor cost, the Plaintiff Company treated the same amount that was paid by the representative director who was already paid to fixedB in the previous process as the basis for the above processing labor cost was not actually refunded, and thus, it is recognized that the above processing labor cost was leaked to the outside of the company.

B) On January 1, 2008, the Plaintiff Company asserted that the appropriation of the above processing labor cost was merely a provisional error in accounting, and that it did not constitute a case where it is obvious that the above amount was leaked out of the company, since it was corrected and reported as the interest of electrical error in the calculation of the income immediately. However, each of the following circumstances acknowledged by the above evidence, i.e., the Plaintiff Company accepted the proposal from ParkCC to adjust the provisional payment and advance payment to its own labor cost, and included the above processing labor cost and the above processing labor cost as if it were repaid to the Plaintiff Company’s regularB. Thus, it can be deemed that it was impossible to recover the provisional payment from the previous accounting manipulation rather than the provisional accounting error. (ii) In light of the above circumstances, it is reasonable to view that the Plaintiff Company revised the matters concerning the loans for processing labor cost and fixedB after the tax investigation was conducted for the business year (which was planned to be included in the amount equivalent to the above processing labor cost at the time of the Plaintiff Company’s restoration to its original state.

C) Therefore, the Plaintiff Company’s assertion is without merit, and the notice of change in the amount of income related to the business year 2007, which was made by disposing of the above processing labor cost as a bonus to the fixedB.

4. Conclusion

Of the instant lawsuits, the part of the claim for revocation of the disposition imposing corporate tax for the business year 2005, exceeding KRW 199,077,497, is dismissed as unlawful, and all of the claims of the Plaintiff Company are dismissed as it is without merit.
