Legislator summary

AI generated

The tax court allowed the county authority to reject the full 30% deduction on a car purchase because the actual mileage (55,000 km) vastly exceeded the declared private use limit (8,000 km). The authority argued that the deduction should be calculated only on the portion of the purchase price corresponding to the legitimate private use. Consequently, the tax assessment was annulled and the case was remanded to the tax board for a new calculation based on these facts.

Liikkeenharjoittaja oli ostanut 130.000 markalla henkilöauton,

jolla oli ajettu hankintavuonna noin 55.000 kilometriä.

Yksityisajojen määräksi oli ilmoitettu 8.000 kilometriä.

Hankintamenosta oli tehty 30 prosentin poisto. Verolautakunta

oli hyväksynyt poiston vain 80.000 markan osalta.

Lääninoikeus katsoi, ettei verolautakunnalla ollut oikeutta

jättää osaa auton hankintahinnasta hankintamenoksi hyväksymättä

pelkästään auton hankintahinnan perusteella. Verotus

kumottiin ja asia palautettiin verolautakunnalle uuden verotuksen

toimittamista varten. Verovuosi 1982.
