Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the inventory valuation of the inherited property could be contested in the inheritance tax appeal
Extrahierter Entscheid
By signing the inheritance inventory and partition, the heirs and executor expressly accepted the property valuation; that acceptance bound them in the inheritance tax proceedings.
Extrahierte Begründung
The taxable event and valuation date are fixed at the opening of the succession. The statute requires valuation at that time, leaving no room for later corrections; the signed inventory confirmed the market value of CHF 2,300,000.
