             section 6621(c).  All section references in this opinion                 
             are to the Internal Revenue Code, as amended.                            
                  The deficiency determined by respondent is based upon               
             the following adjustment as described in the notice of                   
             deficiency:                                                              

                  It has been determined that your distributive                       
                  share of the loss from the B.D.B. Properties                        
                  partnership which has an interest in the                            
                  Thunderbird Associates Ltd. partnership is                          
                  $(2,564.00) in lieu of $(31,255.00) which was                       
                  reported on your tax return for the taxable                         
                  year ending 1978.  The Thunderbird Associates,                      
                  Ltd. partnership has been agreed to at the                          
                  partnership level.                                                  

             As suggested above, one petitioner, Mr. Brody, held a                    
             partnership interest in BDB Properties (BDB) and that                    
             partnership held an interest in another partnership,                     
             Thunderbird Associates, Ltd. (Thunderbird).  Petitioners                 
             reported a loss of $31,255 from BDB on their 1978 return                 
             that was based upon BDB's share of the loss originally                   
             reported by Thunderbird in the amount of $953,129.                       
             Respondent determined that the correct amount of                         
             Thunderbird's loss is $78,120 and, accordingly, adjusted                 
             petitioners' return in the subject notice of deficiency                  
             by reducing their share of the Thunderbird loss from                     
             $31,255 to $2,564.
