The donor requested that shares in a public limited company be valued at the higher purchase price rather than the lowest trading price. The lower administrative court correctly valued the shares at the lowest trading price as required by law. The court upheld this decision because the statutory rule mandates the lowest trading price for such gifts.

Lahjoitus käsitti liikepankin arvopaperipörssissä julkisesti vaihdettavia osakkeita. Lahjansaaja vaati osakkeiden arvostamista joko lahjoituspäivän alimpaan kaupantekokurssiin tai ainakin ostokurssiin eli -noteeraukseen, joka oli 20 penniä kappaleelta alinta kaupantekokurssia korkeampi.

Lääninoikeus arvosti osakkeet alimpaan kaupantekokurssiin.
