The Supreme Administrative Court allowed the tax authority's assessment that interest capitalization in 1995 should be taxed in the 1995 tax year. The parents argued that interest paid in 1995 was income for that year, while the tax authority contended the capitalization date determined the tax year. The court ruled that the legal effect of capitalizing interest occurs on the date of the agreement, making it taxable income in that specific year.

Vanhempien vuonna 1991 lapselleen ja tämän puolisolle antamasta lainasta oli sovittu maksettavaksi Suomen Pankin peruskorkoa vastaava korko, joka oli lainaehtojen mukaan maksettava viimeistään lainan erääntymispäivänä. Velkojien ja velallisten kesken oli 31.12.1995 sovittu, että 146 700 markan pääomalle suoritettava korko 24 699 markkaa ajalta 1.1.1993-31.12.1995 lisätään lainan pääomaan ja että uusi lainapääoma 31.12.1995 oli 171 399 markkaa. Katsottiin, että korko oli suoritettu 31.12.1995 ja että korko oli siten verotettava vanhempien verovuoden 1995 tuloina. Verovuosi 1995. Äänestys 3-2.
