The Administrative Court dismissed the challenge to the Central Tax Board's advisory decision regarding the taxation of sales profits for the 1986 tax year. The Board had issued an advisory opinion based on the tax law at that time, but the relevant provisions were subsequently amended without any transition rules. The court ruled that the advisory decision was not binding because the new legislation superseded the old rules entirely.
