Questão jurídica principal
Whether the valuation of self-produced wine and schnapps stocks had to follow the expert report and be based on a higher value
Decisão extraída
The appellate court could depart from the expert report and value the stocks at CHF 881,391 based on record evidence; the valuation was not arbitrary.
Fundamentação extraída
The report itself stressed the importance of the valuation date; the stocks were separately assessable at market value; the court could rely on balance sheets and tax returns; the appellant failed to show arbitrariness.
