Nissan Caught Cheating Taxes
Nissan Motor Co. failed to declare some $700m in income with the Japanese tax-san during a three-year period through March 2007, the Nikkei [sub] reports today.
The Tokyo Regional Taxation Bureau has sent Nissan an order to pay back taxes, including unspecified billions of Yen in penalties. Nissan has appealed.
Many of the asset management firms ran out of money. Nissan increased their capital and did debt-for-equity swaps. The bureau said Nissan failed to declare profits gained from increasing capital, because the liabilities of the asset management firms had been dissolved before Nissan Network absorbed the firms.
