2. Whether the instant disposition is lawful
A. The plaintiff's assertion
On November 15, 2002, the Plaintiff sold 101, 102, 102, 103, 104, 105, 106, and 107 (hereinafter “the first floor shop of this case”) to 3,537,00,000 won, and 4,35,910,000 [the total amount of the sales revenue of this case 4,56,693,00 won - the sales revenue of this case 200,783,00 won (the sales contract of this case 314,640,640,000 won) to the △△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△○, and the amount of the sales revenue of this case - the above 3001,30005,70005,1000.
B. Determination
(1) However, considering whether the Plaintiff, etc. sold the first floor of this case to △△△△△△△△ in total at KRW 3,537,00,00,00, the following facts are acknowledged: (a) the Plaintiff’s testimony of ○○○ and ○○○○, without the witness, as stated in the evidence No. 3-1 and No. 5-1 and No. 5-5; (b) the Plaintiff, in the course of the instant tax investigation, stated that the Plaintiff did not know at all of △△△△△△△△ in the instant case; (c) the Plaintiff purchased the first floor of this case or stated that △△△△△△△ did not have any work related to the sale; (d) the seller, ○○○ and △△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△△, without the evidence No. 101 and evidence No. 6, 10.
(2) Rather, comprehensively taking account of the circumstances described in the above Paragraph (1) and Nos. 3-2, the Plaintiff et al. sold the instant first floor and Nos. 4,556,693,00 won in total to the purchaser such as the largest ○○, etc., as stated in the above Paragraph (1)(c).
(3) Therefore, the instant disposition that deemed the Plaintiff’s sales revenue amount as KRW 4,556,693,00 is lawful since it does not violate the principle of substantial taxation, and thus, the Plaintiff’s assertion disputing this is not acceptable.
3. Conclusion
Therefore, the plaintiff's claim of this case is dismissed as it is without merit, and it is so decided as per Disposition.
