                  In due course, respondent determined the following                   
             adjustments to WAI's taxable income:                                      

             Adjustments                  1987       1988     1989                     
             Fee participation          $142,607   $51,343   --                        
             Commissions                --         10,515    --                        
             Employee benefits          6,472      5,710     $5,505                    
             Interest income            (3,230)    (6,700)    --                       
             Informal claim      --      --    --                                      
             Total adjustments          148,756    60,328    5,505                     
             Taxable income reported    (52,045)   (111,556)  79,930                   
             Corrected                  96,711     (51,228)   85,435                   

             In computing the above adjustments, respondent rejected the               
             position of WAI's representatives that WAI's income for 1987              
             should be reduced by the amount of the advances received from             
             Weeden.  That issue is referred to above as "Informal claim".             
                  Based upon the above adjustments to WAI's taxable                    
             income, respondent determined increases in the younger                    
             Mr. Whelpley's distributable income from WAI of $17,289 in                
             1987 and $7,644 in 1989, computed as follows:                             

                                              1987              1989                   
             WAI's corrected income           $96,711         $85,435                  
             Distributive share, 12.5%        12,089          10,679                   
             Section 179 deduction            (1,231)         (1,250)                  
                                              10,858          9,429                    
             Loss from WAI, per return        6,431           --                       
             Income from WAI, per return      --              (1,785)                  
             Adjustment                       17,289          7,644
