2) Judgment on the Plaintiff’s assertion
A) First, in relation to the market price of the instant shares, the health account, the facts of recognition, and the entire pleadings are taken.
Comprehensively taking into account the following circumstances recognized by the land, the Plaintiff and the Defendant’s SSWOW
shares under the supplementary assessment method under the Inheritance Tax and Gift Tax Act with respect to the instant shares transaction
under the premise that the market price should be assessed, 37,285 won per share of the shares of this case.
Calculation is lawful.
① The trading of the instant shares is limited to the SS Group under the Monopoly Regulation and Fair Trade Act.
ABC Issuance, which was owned by the Plaintiff, is a SS Group with the same 1.5 million shares of this case.
SSWOW as an affiliate under the Corporate Tax Act and not via the Korea Exchange;
J. It is transferred through over-the-counter trading, and due to the transaction of the stock in this case, SSSW
ABC's largest shareholder (or 40.9 per cent of the equity ratio) in addition to the shares already held (14.2%)
Therefore, the above stock transaction is a transaction accompanied by management rights premium.
(2) The market price under Article 89 of the Enforcement Decree of the Corporate Tax Act is similar to the relevant transaction.
If there is a price generally traded between third parties who are not persons with a special relationship, the price shall be the higher, and
Where stocks issued by an authorized listed corporation are traded with the Korea Exchange, the market price of the relevant stocks shall be the transaction.
U.S.C. (U.S.) provides that the market price is outside the territory other than the Korea Exchange
(2) If the shares of this case are similar to the shares of this case
Korea does not have a generally traded price in third party who is not a party to the transaction, and there is no transaction in Korea.
The right of management is also the price formed through the above exchange transaction among minority shareholders.
It is merely a price that does not include premium but is merely a price in the transaction of the instant shares.
No market price shall be deemed the market price.
③ The Plaintiff reflects the objective exchange value of the instant shares.
Article 176 of the Enforcement Decree of the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act, which is applied by the Plaintiff to the Commission
5 The provisions of this Article shall apply where a stock-listed corporation merges with another corporation, calculating the merged value.
in the transaction of the stock in this case, if the market price is unclear, the value of the stock.
The plaintiff is not for evaluation of this case, and the plaintiff of this case received from Samsung Accounting Corporation.
In light of the stock value in the report, 15% of the right of management is claimed to have been determined, but the report has not been able to do so;
The above evaluation report has a substantial difference between the evaluation base date and the stock transaction date of this case.
In addition to June 30, 2010, the evaluation report mentioned above for the evaluation of stock value.
The cash flow discount law (DCFethod) also does not appear to be an appropriate method for calculating the market price of the shares of this case, including the management premium, based on the valuation method estimatings the capital value at the present time by applying discount rate to the company’s future cash flow. The stock price immediately after the transaction of the shares between the Plaintiff and the SSWWOW, is considerably increased compared to the market price of this case (3,450 won on the following day of the conclusion of the instant memorandum of understanding, and the closing price is 74,00 won on the date of concluding the transfer contract of this case, and the closing price is 74,000 won on November 24, 2010, which is 96,000 won on the date of concluding the transfer contract of this case). As examined below, the appraisal price calculated by applying supplementary valuation method under the Inheritance Tax and Gift Tax Act is 64,402 won per share, which reflects the objective market price of the Plaintiff’s shares as above in relation to the transaction of this case.
④ Ultimately, since the shares of this case are shares whose market price is unclear, the Corporate Tax Act enters into force.
The value assessed by applying mutatis mutandis Article 63 (1) of the Inheritance Tax and Gift Tax Act pursuant to Article 89 (2) 2 of the Decree;
The shares of the listed corporation shall be assessed under Article 63 (1) 1 of the Inheritance Tax and Gift Tax Act.
the average daily market price at the Korea Exchange published for two months before and after the base date;
for the purpose of Article 63(3) of the Inheritance Tax and Gift Tax Act, and Article 63(1)1 of the Inheritance Tax and Gift Tax Act shall apply.
For shares of the largest shareholder, etc., 100 percent of the value assessed in accordance with paragraph (1) 1;
20 shall be added, and the largest shareholder, etc. shall exceed 50/100 of the total number of outstanding stocks, etc. of the relevant corporation;
30/100 should be added to the transaction in this case, and in so doing, the transaction in this case shall be
the market price of the shares in this case shall be two months before and after the date of conclusion of the MOU of this case.
The average of 49,540 won plus 30/1001) 64,402 won, and the Defendant’s order for the instant disposition
The price of the stock of this case calculated is within the scope of the price.
B) Ultimately, the Plaintiff’s price at lower than the market price of the instant shares is a related party.
Transfer to DS, and managerial title related to the sale of the shares claimed by the Plaintiff.
It is difficult to view the foregoing low-price of shares solely with the enemy, as economic rationality in the transfer of such shares;
Article 52 of the Corporate Tax Act, Article 52 of the Corporate Tax Act, and the Enforcement of the Corporate Tax Act.
Decree No. 88(1)3 of the Decree is lower than the market price or free of charge to a person in a special relationship.
