2. Whether the disposition is lawful;

A. The plaintiff's assertion

(1) The Plaintiff’s estimation of KRW 184,853,00,00, out of the purchase amount of the retail store of this case for the second period of February 2002, excluding KRW 40 million in the process of calculating the sales price. The remaining parts were legitimate as well as the tax return was made lawfully. As such, Defendant ○○ Tax Office rendered a decision of estimating KRW 184,853,00 by omitting sales with regard to the omitted purchase amount of KRW 40,000,00 in addition to the omitted purchase amount, although Defendant ○○ Tax Office did not err in calculating the sales price, it did not constitute a ground for estimating sales by simply omitting sales and by on-site investigation. As such, among each of the dispositions of this case based on estimation, the imposition disposition of value-added tax for the second period of February 2002 and global income tax for the second year of 202 is unlawful in violation of the principle of taxation based on the Framework Act on National Taxes

(2) The Plaintiff lent 250 million won to ○○○○ from the opening of the instant tasks to 1% of the interest rate per annum, and only lent the name of the lessee of the lease contract of the said workplace as security for the loan to the Plaintiff, and as ○○ is the actual businessman of the instant tasks, the Plaintiff’s imposition of global income tax for 202 and 203 years on the premise that the Plaintiff is the actual businessman and the imposition of the value-added tax by the head of Defendant ○○ Tax Office for each of the instant dispositions on the premise that the Plaintiff is the actual businessman is illegal.

B. Relevant statutes

It is as shown in the attached Form.

C. Determination

(1) As to the estimation and correction of tax base at the retail store of this case for the second period of 2002

In full view of the provisions of Article 21 of the Value-Added Tax Act and Article 69 of the Enforcement Decree of the same Act, the tax authorities shall, in principle, based on tax invoices, account books, and other evidence in determining or correcting tax bases: Provided, That in the calculation of the tax base, if there is no necessary tax invoices, account books, or other evidence in the calculation of the tax base, or there is a reason under the proviso of Article 21(2) of the Value-Added Tax Act, such as where there is no material part in the calculation of the tax base, the tax authorities shall determine the tax base by means of an additional investigation. Thus, the fact that the plaintiff did not enter the basic inventory, the current purchase, and the last inventory in the account book of the retail stores of this case in 202, and the fact that the plaintiff omitted the purchase amount of KRW 40 million in the calculation process of the purchase price does not conflict between the parties, and therefore, it is justifiable for the defendant to determine the tax base by the method of additional investigation

Therefore, the plaintiff's above assertion is without merit.

(2) As to whether the Plaintiff is the actual business entity of the instant bakeries

(A) Facts of recognition

The following facts may be acknowledged in full view of Gap evidence 5, Eul evidence 2, Eul evidence 3, Eul evidence 3, and witness Lee ○, Seo-○, and the purport of the whole pleadings.

1) The lease contract of the instant excess store is indicated as KRW 50 million, monthly rent of KRW 50 million, KRW 5300,000, and the Plaintiff.

2) On July 9, 2002 and the 10th of the same month, the Plaintiff filed a business report and registered the business of the instant control point in the name of the Plaintiff, and the settlement account for receiving the credit card payment from the instant control point is the Plaintiff’s deposit account.

3) At the time when Defendant ○○ Head of the tax office conducted a tax investigation on the Plaintiff, the Plaintiff as well as the person in charge of managing the instant task branch, stated that the actual business operator of the instant task branch was the Plaintiff, and the main contents thereof are as follows.

A) On July 15, 2002, the Plaintiff opened the instant tasks. On May 24, 2002, the Plaintiff acquired the instant tasks from ○○○○○ for KRW 360 million in premium, and entered into a lease agreement on the said tasks on the 29th of the same month.

B) ○○○, as the manager and the manager of the instant task, managed the instant task by making a daily report on daily sales to the Plaintiff. From the opening of the business to December 2, 2002, the Plaintiff reported the current status of sales daily to the Plaintiff from the opening of the business, and thereafter, the Plaintiff was on the instant task once or once a month, and the Plaintiff reported the details of sales to the Plaintiff.

C) ○○○ deposited the Plaintiff’s sales into a deposit account at the Plaintiff’s ○○ Branch’s opening of ○○○ Bank. A daily sales table, tax invoices, receipts, etc. were delivered to the Plaintiff’s designated tax accountants. The said certified tax accountant reported value-added tax and global income tax as the Plaintiff’s business entity.

D) From 2003 to 2003, Ma○○ has been working as an employee of the instant task, engaged in the adjustment of goods and market-related activities, and his monthly salary is KRW 1,800,000.

(B) Determination

1) According to the above facts of recognition, the lease contract and business registration certificate for the instant excess points, and the tenant or business registration certificate for the sales report are the Plaintiff. Since ○○○○, a plaintiff and his employee, made a statement as the Plaintiff as the actual business operator on specific grounds about the operation status, etc. of the excess points at the time of the tax investigation, the Plaintiff is ratified as the actual business operator of the instant excess points. In the following respect, the evidence submitted by the Plaintiff alone is insufficient to reverse it. Therefore, the Plaintiff’s assertion

2) The Plaintiff alleged that 00 million won was lent to ○○○ by 1% per month interest, and that ○○○ was asked for a false statement at the time of the tax investigation to exempt responsibilities because she did not report on the interest income. However, the Plaintiff offered a relatively large amount of money from 250 million won without any special security (Evidence B No. 8) to a credit service provider, which had experienced several lawsuits from 2000 to 200 million won for debt collection. It is difficult to easily understand that 1% per month interest was not passed ( even if she was a tenant in the name of ○○○, 50 million won is more than the number of loans, and 50 million won is less than 50,000 won, and 50,000 won is less than 5,300,000 won and more than 5,300,000 won, and the reasons for the reversal of the Plaintiff’s statement to this effect and its reasons are no more persuasive.

The plaintiff asserts that ○○○ opened a passbook in the name of the plaintiff to deposit the sales revenue of the instant subject in the bank account, and that he paid personal expenses, such as Rason’s own son’s own son’s own son’s son’s son’s son’s son’s son’s son’s son’s son’s son’s son’s son’s son’s son’s son’s son’s son’s son’s testimony is difficult to believe it in light of the statement at the time of the initial tax investigation, and there is no other evidence to acknowledge it. It was established in the name of the plaintiff by ○○ ○, without borrowing the name from his her son’s son’s her son’s son’s son’s son

The plaintiff asserted that ○○○ paid monthly interest of KRW 2.5 million to the plaintiff’s installment savings and fire insurance premium, KRW 5.2 million each, and KRW 9.9 million each, and that the remaining KRW 9.90,000,000,000 to the plaintiff was remitted to the plaintiff in cash. However, the plaintiff’s monetary withdrawal payment (No. 7) of the plaintiff’s individual states that the amount of surplus income is KRW 4,00,000 on July 22, 2003, KRW 3.3 billion on October 21, 2003, KRW 90,000 on March 23, 2004, KRW 200,000 on May 18, 2004, KRW 9,000 on June 18, 2004, KRW 200 on June 28, 2004, not on the ground that it is not on the basis of the monthly revenue.

○○ alleged that the Plaintiff cannot be deemed a business operator in that he received sanitary education in order to open the instant task, but according to the Food Sanitation Act, any person who intends to conduct a business referred to in Article 21 shall receive prior education on sanitation (the main sentence of Article 27(1)), and any person who does not directly engage in a business or intends to conduct a business at least two places among those who are required to undergo sanitary education under Article 27(1) and (1), may have the person in charge of food sanitation undergo education (Article 27(3)). Thus, it cannot be the ground for the Plaintiff’s failure to undergo the sanitary education as a business operator of the instant task (Article 27(3)).

3. Conclusion

Therefore, the plaintiff's claim against the defendants is dismissed as it is without merit, and it is so decided as per Disposition.
