Kernrechtsfrage
Whether income from the sale and rental of the real estate had to be taxed only at the taxpayer's share because of a silent partnership.
Extrahierter Entscheid
A silent partnership was recognized; the taxpayer was taxable only on its internal share of the income, not on the full amount.
Extrahierte Begründung
A silent partnership is an internal partnership under which the main partner appears outwardly alone. Once the partnership is disclosed, the silent partners are also taxable, and the internal profit-sharing arrangement governs the tax allocation.
