D. Determination by issue

1) Scope of services subject to value-added tax

Article 7 of the former Value-Added Tax Act (amended by Act No. 11129, Dec. 31, 201; hereinafter referred to as the "Enforcement Decree of the Value-Added Tax Act") provides that the provision of services subject to value-added tax shall be a comprehensive provision of services subject to taxation of value-added tax by providing services for all contractual or legal reasons, unless services are supplied without compensation or labor provided under an employment relationship. In addition, Article 13 of the Value-Added Tax Act provides that the amount of money received as the price of goods or services shall be determined as the tax base of value-added tax except in exceptional cases such as overcharge amount, the value of returned goods, and the value of goods damaged before arrival to the person receiving the goods, and the amount of money equivalent thereto shall not be deducted from the tax base. The "in this context," refers to money paid by a supplier in accordance with the trading quantity or future amount under an advance agreement for the purpose of developing a market for sales promotion, and thus, it is irrelevant to the determination of the price of supply in such goods or services.

Article 48 of the Enforcement Decree of the Value-Added Tax Act provides that all monetary values related to the supply of services, such as the price or fees, received from the transaction partner, shall be included in the tax base of value-added tax, and Article 17 of the Value-Added Tax Act provides that the amount obtained by deducting the tax amount (purchase tax) for the supply of goods or services used for the business from the tax amount of the goods or services supplied by the transaction partner

2) The legal nature of the instant private goods

The key issue in this case is whether the instant gift provided by the Plaintiff directly to the subscriber is the price for the services provided by 00 bits and 00 bits.

The following circumstances acknowledged based on the above facts, i.e., the Plaintiff, April 2009

Unlike the form of transaction in principle under the contract, the plaintiff directly provided the contract to the subscriber with the goods of this case. ② The plaintiff did not prepare the above sales agency contract for the 59 sales agencies other than 00 ecrates and 00 ecrates, and the purchase tax invoice received from them did not include the price of the goods in return for the services. ③ The price of the goods of this case is 00 ecrates or 00 ecrates or 59 ecrates, and ④ the price of the goods of this case is ultimately reverted to all customers who join the Internet communications line service of 0 ecrates, and its purport is 0 ecrates or 0 ecrates which are difficult to be included in the tax base for the plaintiff's sales agent's sales agent's sales agent's sales agent's sales agent's sales agent's sales agent's sales agent's sales agent's sales agent's sales agent's sales agent's sales agent's sales agent's sales agent's sales agent's sales agent's sales agent's sales agent's sales agent's e.

3) Accordingly, the instant disposition that did not deduct the amount of the instant goods as the input tax amount.

The plaintiff's assertion on a different position is justified and it cannot be accepted without further review.

3. Conclusion

If so, the plaintiff's claim is dismissed, and the judgment of the court of first instance differs from this conclusion.

Since it is unfair, it is decided to revoke the judgment of the first instance court, and it is so decided as per Disposition.
