The Administrative Court dismissed the taxpayer's claim for tax equalization on a service bonus awarded after 40 years of employment. The taxpayer argued the bonus should be taxed annually, but the authority contended it accrued only upon full completion of the 40-year term. The court ruled that since the bonus could not be considered to have accrued from two or more years, no tax equalization was due.

Legislator headnote

TVL 60 §; Tax equalization applies only when income accrues from two or more years; a lump-sum bonus contingent on a full 40-year service period accrues from a single year and is not subject to tax equalization.

Työnantajalta 40 vuoden palveluksen perusteella saadun rahalahjan

osalta ei toimitettu tulontasausta, koska lahjan saamisen

edellytyksenä oli ollut määrätyn palvelusajan täyttyminen

eikä rahalahjan niin ollen voitu katsoa kertyneen kahdelta

tai useammalta vuodelta. Verovuosi 1981.
