          overstatement, in the amount of $1,378.75 under section

               Plastics Recycling Program.                                            
               2.  The underpayments in income tax attributable to

               tax-motivated transactions, subject to the increased                   
               rate of interest established under I.R.C. �6621(c),                    
               formerly �6621(d).                                                     
               3.  This stipulation resolves all issues that relate to                
               the items claimed on petitioners' tax returns resulting
