Whether the revenue of commission received by a foreign corporation from a German manufacturer to supply or intermediate sales to a domestic company is the domestic source income of the foreign corporation concerned (affirmative)

Summary of Judgment

In the event that the Plaintiff Company, a foreign corporation operating the import, export, and brokerage of vessel-related parts, secured a sales right to sell the goods of the German vessel parts manufacturing company to Japan and Korea and supplied the goods to the Korean shipbuilding company through its sales activities, the sales price of the Plaintiff Company shall be the difference between the price of the goods in Korea and the price of the goods in Korea. In the event that the German manufacturer sells the goods in Korea without going through the Plaintiff Company, the German manufacturer agreed with the German company to receive a commission equivalent to 5 percent of the sales price. Accordingly, if the Plaintiff received the goods in Germany from the Korean shipbuilding company after receiving a commission equivalent to 5 percent of the sales price of the goods in Germany, by importing or brokering the goods in Germany from the Korean shipbuilding company, the above commission revenue shall be deemed domestic source income accrued from the business operated in Korea
