2. The plaintiff's assertion and judgment
A. The plaintiff's assertion
The issue of this case is that the bad debt of this case occurred in 193 and 1994 and was disposed of as loss in the business year 1995 because it was impossible to recover due to the defect of the product due to the defect of the product. On September 1997, the defendant made a disposition of non-taxation and reservation in the business year for the reason that the claim corresponding to the issue bad debt of this case has not been extinctive prescription.
Therefore, the defendant should regard the issue of this case's bad debt as deductible expenses for the business year in which the extinctive prescription of the above claim became due, and deduct it as deductible expenses within five years before the starting date of the business year 2001, and the disposition of this case which did not deduct it as losses is unlawful.
B. Determination
First, as alleged by the plaintiff, each claim corresponding to the issue bad debt of this case is a claim arising in 1993 and 194, or is a claim that should be disposed of as a loss due to the plaintiff's impossibility of recovery of claim or the completion of extinctive prescription, etc., and each statement of Nos. 7 and 8 corresponding thereto is difficult to believe in light of the respective statements of No. 2-1, 2, and 3, and there is no other evidence to prove otherwise.
Therefore, without any further review, the Plaintiff’s above assertion is without merit (the Plaintiff’s assertion that, at the time of a regular tax investigation against the Plaintiff on 197, the Defendant confirmed the existence of a claim corresponding to the instant bad debt, at the time of the instant regular tax investigation with respect to the Plaintiff, and then denied the existence of the claim when 10 years have passed since the Defendant’s disposition of non-deductible losses was in violation of the principle of trust and good faith. However, as to the fact that the Defendant confirmed the existence of each claim corresponding to the instant bad debt as deductible expenses at the time of the tax investigation on 1997, it is insufficient to accept the Plaintiff’s above assertion
3. Conclusion
Therefore, the plaintiff's claim is dismissed as it is without merit, and the judgment of the court of first instance with this conclusion is just, and the plaintiff's appeal is dismissed and it is so decided as per Disposition.
