  • Uwaga główna

    The tax, including the tax on goods and services, is a component of the prices of goods delivered on the basis of activities charged with VAT. Price means the value expressed in monetary units, which the buyer is obliged to pay to the entrepreneur for goods or services; the price includes the tax on goods and services and excise duty if pursuant to separate regulations, the sale of goods (services) is subject to such a tax.

  • Fakty

    The Regional Court pointed out that the plaintiff derived his claim from the contract between him and the defendant, the subject of which was the plaintiff's provision of catering services to the respondent in favor of the defendant's employees. The service consisted of the catering service leading the canteen in the defendant's building. The validity and effectiveness of this agreement was undisputed between the parties. In addition to the dispute, the defendant, by exercising the right under the contract, terminated the contract with the three-month notice period required on 28 February 2013. The contract was terminated on May 31, 2013. Effectiveness of termination was also not contested. However, the dispute between the parties was in regards to their settlement based on the contract. Pursuant to § 11 para. 7 of the contract, in the case of leaving devices in the building, the defendant was to buy them from the plaintiff at the price specified by the appraiser appointed by the defendant.

    In this case, the plaintiff was to issue a VAT invoice within 7 days from the date of handing over the equipment. The invoice was to be payable within 21 days from the date of its receipt by the defendant. The defendant took advantage of this power by informing the plaintiff that he would leave the catering equipment and all the equipment in his building, indicating that the settlement of these appliances would be made on the basis of an appraiser's valuation and then a VAT invoice would be issued. The court of first instance indicated that, taking into account the purpose of the contract, its purpose, its professional character, the circumstances in which it was concluded, the rationality of the parties to the contract and care for its own interests, it should be assumed that the record in the agreement regarding the entitlement of the defendant to appoint an appraiser to determine the value of the equipment did not mean that the plaintiff had no authority to challenge it.

  • Zagadnienie prawne

    One of the issues of this case was whether the price of goods determined by an expert should be paid including the VAT tax or whether it should be raised by the value of VAT tax.

  • Decyzja

    This provision of the contract cannot be interpreted differently but as admission to the defendant of a valuation right that is reliable, objective and will not be challenged by the other party. Taking into account the professional nature of the plaintiff, it is difficult to accept that by concluding the contract, he would agree to such a provision, which would make the amount he would get for the devices left solely up to the will of the defendant, without leaving him the right to challenge it. Thus, since the plaintiff questioned the valuation of equipment and canteen equipment made by the appraiser, it was up to the Court's to assess the amount due to the plaintiff for the equipment left, and consequently to determine whether the claim for the amount requested by him, based on the valuation made by the appraiser appointed by the plaintiff, was reasonable or not. The Court also assessed the amount claimed by the plaintiff as the salary of the expert appointed by him and the unsettled, in his opinion, the amount for catering services rendered to the defendant.
