          return.  Bob Hamric Chevrolet, Inc. v. United States, supra at              
          512.                                                                        
               We are not persuaded that the cases relied on by petitioner            
          support the conclusion that the NOL carryforward adjustments in             
          question are properly characterized as affected items that must             
          be resolved in a partner-level proceeding.  Rather, we are                  
          satisfied, based on the record presented, that those adjustments            
          satisfy the definition of an affected item subject to                       
          computational adjustment.  Sec. 6231(a)(6); White v.                        
          Commissioner, 95 T.C. 209, 211 (1990).  Indeed, as was the case             
          in Bob Hamric Chevrolet, Inc. v. United States, supra, counsel              
          for petitioner concedes that there is no dispute as to the                  
          computations that respondent made in this case.                             
               In view of the foregoing, and under the facts presented, we            
          see no merit in petitioner's contention that the NOL carryforward           
          adjustments in this case must be the subject of an affected items           
          notice of deficiency.                                                       
               In order to reflect the foregoing,                                     


                                             An appropriate order                     
                                        will be issued.
