               The Youngs filed timely a joint 1989 Federal income tax                
          return.  On January 7, 1994, the Commissioner mailed them a                 
          notice of deficiency reflecting a determination that the Youngs'            
          1989 taxable income was increased by $50,030 on account of a                
          taxable transfer of property from Young & Young under section 83.           
          The notice also stated that the Youngs were liable for a $2,802             
          accuracy-related penalty under section 6662(a) because the                  
          underpayment of tax was due to negligence.                                  
               On the same day, the Commissioner mailed Young & Young a               
          notice of deficiency reflecting a determination that its 1989               
          taxable income was increased by $50,030 because its contribution            
          to the Trust was governed by subpart D.11  Young & Young had
