A taxpayer not domiciled in Geneva challenged the Federal Tax Administration's method for valuing a property located in Valais for tax-rate purposes. The court held that the AFC could rely on the acquisition price fixed by the Valais cantonal tax authority when determining the property's value. The challenge was therefore dismissed and the AFC's approach upheld.
