                         Total     $603,458.84                                        
                    Between 1963 through 1970 Resyn paid various                      
               Polymer Chemicals' invoices for fictitious purchases                   
               of chemicals and listed said payments on the books of                  
               Resyn as costs of goods sold.  As a result, Resyn's                    
               cost of goods sold was overstated in the following                     
               manner:                                                                
                    Year           Amount of Overstatement                            
                    1963           196,154.00                                         
                    1964                238,555.00                                    
                    1967                10,517.83                                     
                    1968                87,082.23                                     
                    1969                69,518.99                                     
                    1970                3,420.51                                      
                         Total        $605,248.56                                     
                    Many of the Resyn checks made payable to Polymer                  
               Chemicals were not deposited but were withheld for                     
               deposit for a year other than the one in which they                    
               were written.  However, the adjustment to the cost of                  
               goods sold is effective for the tax year in which the                  
               checks to Polymer Chemicals were written and not the                   
               tax year in which they were negotiated.                                
                    During the same time period, 1963 through 1970,                   
               Leo Levitt withdrew a total of $1,006,019.91 from the                  
               Polymer Chemicals' bank account at the Hillside office                 
               of the National State Bank.  He was able to accomplish                 
               this by having Harry Levinson sign the checks in blank.
