Coca-Cola asked a federal appeals court Thursday to overturn a U.S. Tax Court decision that put the company on the hook for more than $20 billion in taxes and interest, contending that the Internal Revenue Service engaged in an unfair and retroactive bait-and-switch in how it calculated Coke’s foreign profits. The IRS challenged Coke’s tax returns for 2007 through 2009, and the outcome of the case will affect the company’s payments for every year since then. Gregory Garre, arguing for the company before a three-judge panel in Miami, pointed to a 1996 Coke-IRS agreement and subsequent IRS statements that accepted the company’s method for calculating how much profit was assigned to the U.S. and how much was attributed to lower-taxed foreign countries.
