German term

Abfärbe- und Geprägetheorie

German to English Bus/Financial Law: Taxation & Customs Finance
This is from an overview of a business taxation university course. All items are in bullet points, so not much context. It features in the section "Business income" - income from sole proprietorships, dividends from business partnerships, profits resulting from sales of shares.

I researched a bit and in another thread Abfärbetheorie was translated with 'tainting principle'. If this is the case, what would Geprägetheorie be? Is 'gewerblich geprägt' a factor here?
Sorry, am no accountant so I'm not quite sure what is meant, thank you!

New translation offered: 'Qualification of income type und Re-qualification of non-commercial income'
My client has gotten back to me and said that this is what it is called in the industry. I thought it would be good to update the glossary.

tainting and business taint theory

I'm no accountant either, but this is what I found.

The profits of an SCS/SCSp may be subject to municipal business tax … (i) if the SCS/SCSp carries out a business activity or (ii) if, by virtue of the business-taint theory (Geprägetheorie), the SCS/SCSp’s general partner owns 5% or more of the interests in the SCS/SCSp. https://www.arendt.com/jcms/gen_10899/en/taxation-of-scs-and... https://tinyurl.com/y2f7vmws
