        Respondent's adjustments stem primarily from disallowing the market           
        absorption discounts claimed by the estate.  For some unexplained             
        reason, respondent did not adjust the large discounts ascertained by          
        Mr. Stockdale for lack of marketability and lack of control.                  
             During his life, the decedent helped administer all the subject          
        property, and he was a focal point in each of the businesses that             
        held the property.  Shortly after his death, many people expressed            
        interest in whether the subject property would be sold or retained by         
        the estate or beneficiaries thereof.  These interested persons                
        included local and Detroit-based real estate agents who inquired as           
        to whether the subject property would be marketed for sale, and               
        whether they could get information on any of the real estate that             
        would be, or was, offered for sale.  The estate anticipated that              
        other people would be calling with respect to the subject property.
