For residential real estate, the calculation method (assessment of land and building), public notice and appeal procedures are stipulated in the Public Notice of Values And Appraisal of Real Estate Act, which was enacted in 2005. However, disputes have continuously arisen for non-domestic real estate transactions, such as office, factory and retails, due to absence of the corresponding price public notice system that provides calculation method and appeal procedures. In particular, the calculation method of taxation standard for non-domestic real estate(calculate in a method using single standard price based on individually appraised value of real estate for land, whereas calculate based on cost value method for building, then add-up) is controversial because of inequality among tax payers in terms of the price accuracy and taxation equity aspects.
This study analyzed the equity of prices, calculated according to the calculation method of Building Market Price Standard Value announced by the current Ministry of Security and Public Administration in accordance withrate analysis standard presented by IAAO by region, purpose, building structure and price level.
When it comes to realization rate as a result of the analysis, nationwide average was about 60%. Regionally, Seoul ranked the lowest level at about 54%, while Chungcheong and Gangwon regions demonstrated the highest level at about 73%. As for horizontal equity, it showed 5.0-20.0, which was within the COD analysis result standard by IAA, implying consistency of taxation standard by real estate type. The existing method incorporated such problems as unbalanced tax burden and low realization rate, because of effects of micro approach on the government's taxation standard improvement. When analysis is conducted on effects compared to costs spent to institute a large volume assessment for the administrative purpose, this study presented an alternative, the price taxation standard calculation method by standard-individual method, among various other alternatives. As a result of analysis on the calculation method of non-domestic real estateby the Korea Appraisal Board using the standard-individual method, improvements were demonstrated in the realization rate and vertical equity when analyzed in accordance with analysis standard of IAAO. In other words, actualization rate appearsabout 69%, showing about 9% increase effect of taxation standard, compared to the existing mode. Vertical equity also demonstrated improvement from 0.992 to 1.053.
Starting with the adoption of the public notice system on non-residential real estate, improving taxationstandard for real estate can be an effective measure to realize fair taxation on real estate and procure welfare financial resources. However, due to a concern of tax resistance, a means to raise public awareness and a measure to prevent rapid tax burden need to be devised.
Lastly, this study is expected to make contributions to improving the taxation standard for real estate and calculation method, and enhancingthe real estate price public notice system, and to be helpful to taxation equity realization and securing stable national finances.
