            The Dial One Mobile work listed above was billed by W&C to Rhys,                           
            not to NITCO.  Petitioners concede that the $2,239.85 is not                               
            deductible by NITCO and represents constructive dividend income                            
            to Mr. Mussman.                                                                            
                  During 1989, NITCO made certain legal expenditures totaling                          
            $88,484, for which it claimed no deduction.  A portion of these                            
            expenditures in the amount of $75,342 was recorded by NITCO in an                          
            account called "Cellular Telephone Investment".  The remaining                             
            $13,052 of the expenditures was recorded by NITCO in an account                            
            called "Other Investments".  The $88,484 in legal expenditures                             
            was attributable to the following matters:
