               AJF is a New York corporation with principal offices in                
          Williamsville, New York, at the time the petitions were filed.              
          AJF is involved in the business of furniture delivery and is a              
          cash receipts and disbursement method taxpayer.  AJF's employees            
          were mainly drivers, helpers for loading, helpers for drivers of            
          home deliveries, and tractor-trailer drivers.                               
               During the years in issue, AJF earned income by performing             
          services for J.C. Penney Company, Inc. (J.C. Penney), pursuant to           
          a Delivery Service Agreement (Contract) dated March 6, 1987.  The           
          Contract required AJF to deliver furniture to customers of J.C.             
          Penney and transport furniture for J.C. Penney from various                 
          locations, including the Buffalo, New York, and Toledo, Ohio,               
          distribution centers of J.C. Penney.  AJF also performed delivery           
          work for J.C. Penney in other States and delivered fabricated               
          goods for the Buffalo Custom Decorating Division of J.C. Penney.            
               AJF used the trucks of J.C. Penney to perform its contract             
          services from 1988 to October 1990.  Thereafter, AJF supplied               
          both the drivers and the trucks.  J.C. Penney reimbursed AJF for            
          fuel purchased by AJF in performing its delivery services under             
          the Agreement.  AJF employees used cash and corporate credit                
          cards for the purchase of fuel used in the delivery of J.C.                 
          Penney products.
