Meanwhile, Article 60 (2) of the Enforcement Decree of the same Act provides that even in a case where part of the requisite entries in the said tax invoice are erroneously entered, if the facts of transactions are confirmed in view of the requisite entries in the said tax invoice or discretionary entries, such matters as prescribed in Article 22 (2) 2 of the Act shall not be included in the tax invoice different from the facts. The purport of the above provision is to ensure the truth of the fact of the fact of the fact of transactions, which is a document evidencing the fact of transactions in order to determine value-added taxes, and thus, it is concluded that even if some of the entries are inconsistent with the facts, the said additional tax shall not be paid if the facts

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.
