2. Determination as to the cause of claim
A. The Plaintiffs asserts that the value-added tax should be paid KRW 50,000,000 equivalent to 10% of the value-added tax equivalent to 500,000,000 of the construction price E, as the value-added tax is separate in addition to the construction price under the instant construction contract.
Article 31 of the Value-Added Tax Act provides that "if an entrepreneur supplies goods or services, the value-added tax calculated by applying the tax rate of 10% to the statutory value of supply shall be collected from the person who receives the goods or services."
However, the above provision is ultimately applicable to the final consumer by transferring in sequence the amount equivalent to the value-added tax collected from the business operator.
