He determined that each beginning and ending inventory figure for 1990 through 1993 consisted of 28.2 percent guns and 71.8 percent other goods (i.e., this allocation was consistent with petitioners' 1993 inventory records). He accepted as correct the purchase amounts from Faw's work papers, used information received from vendors to determine the amount of purchases attributable to gun purchases, and subtracted gun purchases from total purchases to determine the amount of purchases attributable to other goods. Agent Brown did not have sufficient information to categorize the 1990 and 1991 purchases. After allocating cost of goods sold between guns and other goods, Agent Brown applied the gross profit percentages to determine gross receipts. For 1992 and 1993, he applied a gross profit of 15 percent to the cost of guns (i.e., he multiplied cost by 118 percent) and 40 percent to the cost of other goods (i.e., he multiplied cost by 167 percent). He did not have sufficient information to allocate between the cost of guns and the cost of other goods sold in 1990 and 1991, so hePage: Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 Next
