3) On January 7, 2014, the head of Samsung District Tax Office notified the Plaintiff of KRW 119,901,00,000, which was part of the real estate acquisition fund for the said real estate leasing business, on October 27, 2011, and notified the Plaintiff of KRW 247,608,270, which was donated gift tax (including additional tax) on June 1, 2012. On June 1, 2012,CC filed a lawsuit seeking revocation of each disposition imposing gift tax. On December 11, 2015, the court dismissed the claim on the grounds thatCC cannot be deemed to have jointly operated the Plaintiff and HH on December 11, 2015 (this court’s judgment -5-Gu 2015Gu13213, evidence - evidence - evidence - evidence - evidence - evidence - evidence - evidence 1, 2019, and evidence - evidence 1, - 3, evidence - each of the entire evidence -
B. In light of the following facts and circumstances, it is reasonable to view that the Plaintiff, as a joint proprietor, operated the HH business with the Plaintiff, instead of jointly operating the HH business, in light of the following facts and circumstances, which can be seen by adding the facts and evidence as seen earlier, as well as the evidence and evidence, and the overall purport of the pleading.
① On August 12, 2008, after two or more years of the commencement date of HH from August 12, 2008,CC worked at the Agricultural and Forestry Livestock Quarantine Service located in the Incheon Public Port from November 7, 2010. On a daily basis, it worked at the 8th day during each week (at least average of 15 days, at least 50 hours per month), and worked at the end of each week. In light of the working details during the above period, it is difficult to deem that it actually was in charge of H’s sales and management, and overseas expansion-related business. “C” Since the title “LL” was actually performed by the title “H-related business operator”, “L building business operator who is irrelevant to the clothing business” and “L building”, it is difficult to conclude that the above title was directly related to H, based solely on the circumstances that the above title was directly related to H, it is difficult to conclude that it was in charge of the above business under a joint business or agreement with H.
2) The operating fund or operating fund after HH opening operations.
- Not only did it have been submitted to 6- physical investment, but also it is difficult to view that the above income was not consumed by family living expenses, etc. and invested by H’s opening business funds, etc., even in light of the amount of wage and salary income at the time when the public official was employed. On the other hand, as seen earlier, it is natural to deem that the Plaintiff invested in H because, even before the opening of HH, the clothes company similar thereto worked as a designer or directly operated the clothing company, and thus, it was naturally reasonable to deem that the income was invested in H.
④ There is no ground to deem that H’s income was distributed toCC.CC was subject to gift tax on the Plaintiff’s acquisition of real estate with the Plaintiff’s funds on the ground that it received a donation equivalent to the funds, and filed a lawsuit seeking revocation of gift tax imposition to the effect that the said funds were distributed as joint business operators. However, the first instance court rendered a judgment against the Plaintiff.
⑤CC did not have paid global income tax or value-added tax with respect to H’s business income, and the Plaintiff did not assert that it was engaged in joint business withCC up to the tax investigation related to the instant disposition, the legality prior to taxation, and the process of appeal. In addition, as to whether the standard expense rate for clothing and retail business can be applied or not.
1) Article 21(2) proviso of the former Value-Added Tax Act (Amended by Act No. 11873, Jun. 7, 2013); Article 69(1) of the former Enforcement Decree of the Value-Added Tax Act (Amended by Presidential Decree No. 24638, Jun. 28, 2013); Article 80(3) proviso of the Income Tax Act; Article 144(1), etc. -7 of the Enforcement Decree of the Income Tax Act
The estimation of revenue amount under each provision is not sufficient to be deemed legitimate. The content and method of estimation must be reasonable and reasonable to reflect the actual amount of revenue amount close to the truth in a specific case. In the event of controversy over the legitimacy of estimation method, the burden of proving rationality and validity lies on the tax authorities (see Supreme Court Decision 2008Du7687, Oct. 14, 2010). 2) Wholesale business is an industrial activity that resells the purchased goods or used goods to the general public without changing the goods for consumption. The retail business is an industrial activity that resells the goods for consumption to the general public without changing the goods for consumption. The retail business and retail business are divided depending on whom the other party to the sale is a person. It is reasonable to deem that the Plaintiff, based on the aforementioned evidence and evidence, Gap 5 through 7, evidence No. 11, and evidence No. 14, and evidence No. 2 of the total return of revenue amount after adding it to the above 10 items of revenue and retail business.
① The APM building occupied by H is a building in which clothing and retail stores have been located. The prime customers are clothing and retail stores. APM building is distinguishable from that of clothing and retail stores located in the vicinity of the building, using similar trade names, and is distinguishable from that of clothing and retail stores.
② H mainly from 21:00 to 05:00 the following day, it is difficult for ordinary consumers to visit, and does not have sufficient space, etc. where ordinary consumers can enjoy clothes in the place of business; H does not have any clothes retailers around the store.
- 8- The so-called ‘the so-called ‘satis' is stored with a pumsatum. Even if the clothes sold to ordinary consumers in the store are harsh in light of these business methods, the proportion seems to be insignificant.
③ The Plaintiff added a category retail business to the category of business on February 11, 2011, but there is no evidence to deem that any change has occurred in the existing business method, starting its business.
④ Even after February 11, 2011, the fact that “H category wholesale business” still remains a category of business category of H, deeming that the total amount of revenue omitted is all the revenue earned from the operation of the clothing retail business. In the course of the tax investigation, it is natural to see that the omission of cash sales on behalf of the Plaintiff is a revenue earned from the operation of the clothing retail business. However, in the course of the tax investigation, it is true thatCC prepared a written confirmation (Evidence No. 14) that the omission of cash sales on behalf of the Plaintiff is a retail revenue sold in cash to Chinese tourists and domestic consumers, but it is not a content that confirms the omission
⑤ The Plaintiff did not report value-added tax, etc. on the revenue omitted, and did not disclose the other party to the transaction. However, as long as the Plaintiff was the revenue amount omitted from the income return received in cash (if the Plaintiff reported value-added tax by clearly stating the transaction partner, there is no reason to make the correction of the estimated value-added tax) solely on the above facts alone, the total amount
3) Therefore, the part of the disposition imposing global income tax for the imposition of global income tax for the year 201, which exceeds KRW 353,314,519, calculated by applying the standard expense rate for the clothing wholesale business, is unlawful.
D. As to whether an additional tax for underreporting can be imposed on an illegal underreporting
- 9-
1) In a case where the return of a tax base by unlawful means, which is the requirement for an illegal underreporting additional tax as provided by Article 47-3(2)1 of the former Framework Act on National Taxes (amended by Act No. 11124, Dec. 31, 2011), is underreporting the tax base by an active act such as making it difficult to detect the taxation requirements on the national tax or forging false facts, it means the return attributable to the purpose of evading the tax, such as the avoidance of the progressive tax rate and the application of the provisions on loss brought forward (see Supreme Court Decision 2013Du12362, Nov. 28, 2013). In light of the following facts and circumstances, it is reasonable to view that the Plaintiff underreporting the tax base of each global income tax and value-added tax on the disposition of this case by unlawful or unjust means.
(1) As a result of the tax investigation, the Plaintiff has continuously omitted the report on the amount of income, such as cash sales, from the commencement of H.
② The Plaintiff sought for the correction of the estimation based on the premise that the content of the account book prepared by himself is different from the fact even in the case of legality prior to taxation.
③ In the course of the tax investigation, the Plaintiff did not submit a daily table, sales ledger, etc. to the effect that there was no existed. In light of H’s sales size, etc., it is difficult to readily understand that the Plaintiff did not entirely prepare such data.
④ In April 2009, the Defendant secured the account books on which the Plaintiff entered in the account book to receive revenue in April 2009. The sales amount exceeds KRW 400 million. Of them, the account amount is merely 15%. The Defendant failed to secure the above account books for other periods, and eventually, imposed tax by estimating only the amount corresponding to the amount of the Plaintiff’s account entry in the Plaintiff’s name.
