Legislator summary

AI generated

The Administrative Court ruled that the director's Cairo trip was a private leisure trip rather than a business expense. The court found no evidence in the travel program to justify the lectures held abroad within four days. Consequently, the entire monetary benefit was classified as taxable income for the 1980 tax year.

Radio- ja televisioliikkeen toimitusjohtaja osallistui suomalaista

elektroniikkaa valmistavan yhtiön järjestämille

koulutusmatkoille muun ohella Kairoon 15.-22.3.1980. Kairon

matkasta esitetyn ohelman mukaan koulutuksen järjestäjä oli

kotimainen eikä ohjelmasta ilmennyt syytä neljän päivän aikana

tapahtuneiden luentotilaisuuksien järjestämiseen ulkomailla.

Matka katsottiin palkkioluontoiseksi virkistysmatkaksi,

jonka rahanarvoinen etu oli kokonaisuudessaan saajan veronalaista

tuloa. Verovuosi 1980.
