Reasons
The grounds of appeal are examined.
In order to calculate the transfer margin by means of the rate under Article 115 (1) 1 (a) of the former Enforcement Decree of the Income Tax Act (Presidential Decree No. 9229, Dec. 30, 1978) which was enforced at the time of the transfer of this case, the party member's view is that not only at the time of the transfer, but also at the time of the acquisition, the property should be located in the specific area and the rate should be determined (see Supreme Court Decisions 83Nu579, Feb. 14, 1984; 84Nu63, May 29, 1984). Accordingly, the court below's decision ordering the cancellation of the transfer income tax imposition disposition of this case cannot be deemed as legitimate and there is no misapprehension
Therefore, the appeal is dismissed, and the costs of the appeal are assessed against the losing party. It is so decided as per Disposition by the assent of all participating Justices.
