F. Determination on the Plaintiff’s assertion as stated in the Plaintiff’s above A-4
In the case of assessing the net asset value of the instant shares only, there is no evidence to view that there is a reason under each subparagraph of Article 54(4) of the former Enforcement Decree of the Inheritance Tax and Gift Tax Act (amended by Presidential Decree No. 20621, Feb. 22, 2008; hereinafter “former Enforcement Decree of the Inheritance Tax and Gift Tax Act”), which is the case of assessing the value of the instant shares. It is also difficult to view that the method of evaluating the value of the instant shares should be applied mutatis mutandis just because it is unreasonable to evaluate the net asset value of the instant shares by the weighted average ratio of 3:2 of the net asset value and the net asset value in accordance with Article 54(1) of the former Enforcement Decree of the Inheritance Tax and Gift Tax Act from 202 to 2004. The Plaintiff’s assertion in this part is unacceptable.

【Additional Judgment Matters】
A. The plaintiff's assertion
In light of the fact that there is no particular difference in the case of free capital increase and capital increase, and that the Enforcement Decree of the Inheritance Tax and Gift Tax Act added the content that reflects the dilution effect like free capital increase even in the case of capital increase with the amendment on July 25, 2011, the value per share of the instant shares cannot be calculated in accordance with the net asset value method, even if the value per share cannot be calculated in accordance with the net asset value method, the value per share of the instant shares should be calculated by applying mutatis mutandis the proviso of Article 56(2) of the former Enforcement Decree of the Inheritance Tax and Gift Tax Act, which provides for the method of reflecting the dilution effect at the
B. Determination
In full view of all the following circumstances revealed by the content of the relevant Acts and subordinate statutes, the value per share of the instant shares cannot be calculated in accordance with the method stipulated in the proviso of Article 56(2) of the former Enforcement Decree of the Inheritance Tax and Gift Tax Act, which provides for the method of reflecting the dilution effect at the time of capital increase without compensation. The Plaintiff’s
Article 56 (2) of the former Enforcement Decree of the Inheritance Tax and Gift Tax Act (amended by Ordinance of the Ministry of Finance and Economy No. 579 of Oct. 29, 2007) provides that "the number of stocks converted to stocks shall be calculated based on the number of stocks issued for each business year as of the end of each business year as of the end of each business year before the base date of appraisal x (the number of stocks issued for free increase + the number of stocks issued for free increase ± the number of stocks issued for free increase ± the number of stocks issued for free increase ± the number of stocks issued for free increase ± the number of stocks issued for free increase ± the number of stocks issued for free increase ± the number of stocks issued for free increase ± the number of stocks issued for free increase ± the number of stocks issued for free increase ± the number of stocks issued for free increase ± the number of stocks issued for free increase ± the number of stocks issued for free increase ± the number of stocks issued for free increase ± the number of stocks issued for free increase in the business year:
In a case where capital reserve under the Commercial Act, such as an excess of the amount of stocks issued, and the revaluation reserve fund under the Assets Revaluation Act, are issued free of charge in accordance with the increase of capital as a result of the increase of capital in excess of the number of stocks issued or the amount of assets revaluation reserve, etc. reflected in the value of assets of the existing stocks, and thus allocated gratuitously to the existing stockholders according to the number of stocks held by them. As such, even though the company’s capital increase, there is no change in the net assets, and in principle, there is no difference in the ratio of the company’s total capital stock to the total amount of stocks held by it or the actual property value (see Supreme Court Decision 2007Du1361, Mar. 12, 2009). On the other hand, in a case of capital increase with respect to capital increase, it is reasonable to reasonably calculate the net assets value per share by applying the provisions of Article 56(2) of the former Enforcement Decree of the Inheritance Tax and Gift Tax Act as well as the net assets value per share.
It is desirable to calculate the net value of unlisted stocks by the method of assessing the current value after estimating the future expected profit of the stocks. However, Articles 54(1) and 56(1)1 of the former Enforcement Decree of the Inheritance Tax and Gift Tax Act, which is the past performance, provides that the net profit per share shall be calculated by discounting the weighted average amount of net profit for the last three years per share by the interest rate reflecting the rate on distribution of corporate bonds with three-year maturity. As such, substitution of future expected profit with the past performance is premised on the fact that the past performance continues to continue in the future. As such, when the net profit increases through capital increase with capital increase, it can be reasonably calculated the net profit per share by reasonably reflecting the future expected profit generated based on the increased net asset. However, even in the case of the proviso to Article 56(2) of the former Enforcement Decree of the Inheritance Tax and Gift Tax Act, which regulates the dilution effect of gratuitous capital increase without consideration, making it difficult to estimate the future profit and loss per share objectively calculated due to the increase of net asset.
The proviso of Article 56(3) of the Enforcement Decree of the Inheritance Tax and Gift Tax Act (amended by Presidential Decree No. 23040, Jul. 25, 2011; hereinafter referred to as the “Enforcement Decree of the Inheritance Tax and Gift Tax Act”) stipulates that the number of outstanding stocks as of the end of each business year shall be calculated in the same manner as the case of a person with no compensation (the method prescribed by Ordinance of the Ministry of Strategy and Finance) even in cases of a person with no compensation. Meanwhile, Article 17-3(5)1 of the Enforcement Rule of the Inheritance Tax and Gift Tax Act (amended by Ordinance of the Ministry of Strategy and Finance No. 223, Jul. 26, 2011) provides that the calculation of total number
However, the amended Enforcement Decree of the Inheritance Tax and Gift Tax Act does not simply stipulate that the net profit and loss value should be calculated by the same method as the gratuitous capital increase, but also reflect the future expected profit arising from the increase in net assets by newly establishing Article 56(5) as follows. In light of the amendment of the aforementioned statutes, the proviso of Article 56(2) of the former Enforcement Decree of the Inheritance Tax and Gift Tax Act, which regulates the calculation of net profit and loss per share in a manner that does not reflect the future expected profit arising from the increase in net assets at all, shall be deemed to apply only to the capital increase without compensation, and it shall not be deemed that the proviso of Article 56(2) of the former Enforcement Decree of the Inheritance Tax and Gift Tax Act, which
