Text

The costs of appeal are assessed against the defendant.
Reasons
The grounds of appeal are examined.
1. On the first ground for appeal:
According to the judgment of the court below, the non-party 1 and the non-party 2 were not entitled to 10/50 of the total amount of 10/100 of the total amount of 10/50 of the total amount of 10/57 of the total amount of 30/100 of the total amount of 20/10 of the total amount of 10/10 of the total amount of 40/10 of the total amount of 20/10 of the total amount of 30/10 of the total amount of 40/10 of the total amount of 10/10 of the total amount of 40/10 of the total amount of 100 of the total amount of 10/10 of the total amount of 10/10 of the total amount of 30/10 of the total amount of 40/10 of the total amount of the 30/500 of the total amount of the 14/100 of the total amount of the 100.
2. On the second ground for appeal:
According to Articles 23(4) and 45(1)1 of the Income Tax Act (Act No. 3271, Dec. 13, 1980) which was enforced at the time of the Plaintiff’s land transfer, the transfer price and acquisition price shall be calculated based on the actual transaction price, but shall be determined based on the standard market price at the time of the transfer or acquisition of the relevant asset if the Presidential Decree prescribes, and pursuant to Article 170(3) of the Enforcement Decree of the same Act (Presidential Decree No. 10120, Dec. 31, 1980), the transfer price and acquisition price shall be determined based on the standard market price if the preliminary return or final return on tax base pursuant to Article 95 or 100 of the Act is not made. The purport of each provision is that if a taxpayer fails to make the preliminary return or final return on tax base, the actual transaction price can be determined based on the standard market price which is presumed to be unclear, and thus, the Plaintiff may not dispute the amount of tax assessment by the time of an appeal 480.
Therefore, the appeal is dismissed, and the costs of appeal are assessed against the losing party. It is so decided as per Disposition by the assent of all participating Justices.
