kaupantekohintaan

Kaupantekohinta is a Finnish term that refers to the price agreed upon in a sale transaction—the consideration that transfers ownership of goods or property from seller to buyer. The form kaupantekohintaan is the illative case of the phrase and is used in Finnish to express “to the price of the sale” in contextual clauses such as those describing terms or calculations related to the sale. The term is formed from kaupanteko, the act of concluding a sale, and hinta, price.

In practice, kaupantekohinta is the amount specified in the sales contract as the price of the transaction. It may be fixed or adjusted by agreement, credits, or other contractual arrangements. It is commonly used in real estate, business sales, and the sale of goods, and it is often discussed alongside notions of market value or list price (käypä hinta, markkinahinta).

From a legal and administrative perspective, kaupantekohinta serves as the basis for calculation of taxes and duties associated with the transfer, such as transfer tax on real estate, and for the recording of the transaction. If a transaction uses a deliberately understated price, authorities may scrutinize or challenge the stated kaupantekohinta.

The term is often synonymous with kauppahinta, though kauppahinta is the more common everyday term for the purchase price. Kaupantekohinta emphasizes the price agreed at the moment of contract closing, especially in formal or legal contexts.
