Abstract (eng)
Distributions by corporations can be qualified for tax purposes as a repayment of contributions or as a distribution of profits. This assessment is of considerable importance at the level of the shareholders due to the different legal consequences for income tax purposes. Accordingly, contributions to and repayments of contributions from companies must be recorded on an ongoing basis. In the course of reorganizations, there may be significant effects on the deposit records of corporations. This Master's thesis deals with the effects of reorganizations on the deposit records of corporations. In addition to a basic description of the different types of reorganizations, some selected topics related to reorganizations and deposit accounts are examined in more detail. For these purposes, the present Master Thesis analyzes the currently applicable tax system of deposits and reorganizations, taking into account existing literature, administrative prac-tice and case law. The methods used in this Master Thesis are based on general scientific and legal principles.
