Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the 1999 cantonal tax reassessment and estimation were unlawful or arbitrary.
Decisione estratta
The reassessment and estimation were upheld because the bookkeeping was materially and formally deficient and reliable assessment data were missing.
Motivazione estratta
Incomplete accounts destroyed the presumption of correctness of the recorded figures; the authorities could estimate taxable income, and the company failed to show the estimate was manifestly wrong.
