               COHEN, Chief Judge:  The issues addressed in this opinion              
          are whether petitioner's purchase and resale of American                    
          Depository Receipts (ADR's) in 1992 lacked economic substance and           
          whether petitioner is liable for an accuracy-related penalty                
          pursuant to section 6662(a).  (In a separate opinion, Compaq                
          Computer Corp. & Subs. v. Commissioner, T.C. Memo. 1999-220, we             
          held that income relating to printed circuit assemblies should              
          not be reallocated under section 482 to petitioner from its                 
          Singapore subsidiary for its 1991 and 1992 fiscal years.                    
          Petitioner has also filed a Motion for Summary Judgment on the              
          issue of whether petitioner is entitled to foreign tax credits              
          for certain United Kingdom Advance Corporation Tax payments.)               
          Unless otherwise indicated, all section references are to the               
          Internal Revenue Code in effect for the years in issue, and all             
          Rule references are to the Tax Court Rules of Practice and                  
          Procedure.
