                                       - 11 -                                         

             The original purchase orders from which the agent made the               
             above summary were among the records that were lost in the               
             December 1996 fire that destroyed Justins and are not                    
             included as part of the record in these cases.                           
                  The revenue agent used the bottle purchases reflected               
             on the purchase orders provided by petitioners to                        
             reconstruct the total sales for each year.  Ms. Crabtree                 
             informed the revenue agent that 80 percent of the liter                  
             bottles purchased were used in the bar and 20 percent were               
             sold in the package store.  The notices of deficiency                    
             issued to Crabtree Investments explain the computation of                
             bar sales and package store sales as follows:                            

                  Bar sales were determined based on using 80                         
                  percent of your purchases.  The number of unit                      
                  purchases (bottles) times the number of servings                    
                  per unit purchase times the charges per serving                     
                  equals the bar sales.                                               
                  Package sales were determined based on using 20                     
                  percent of your purchases.  The number of unit                      
                  purchases (bottles) times the unit sales price                      
                  equals the package sales.                                           

             The allocation described in the above explanation applies                
             only to liter bottles.  On the basis of the statements of                
             petitioners, the agent treated all other bottles purchased               
             by Crabtree Investments as having been sold in the package               
             store.
