                                        - 3 -                                         
               (2) Whether the administrative and litigation costs claimed            
          by petitioners are reasonable.  In light of our holding as to the           
          first issue, we need not address this second issue.                         
               Neither party requested an evidentiary hearing, and the                
          Court concludes that such a hearing is not necessary for the                
          proper disposition of petitioners' motion.  See Rule 232(a)(2).             
          We therefore decide the matter before us on the basis of the                
          record that has been developed to date.                                     
          Background                                                                  
               Petitioners resided in Oklahoma at the time that the                   
          petitions were filed with the Court.                                        
               Petitioners Ronald D. Pittman (Pittman), Douglas W. Kemp (D.           
          Kemp), and Paul W. Kemp (P. Kemp) are shareholders of Industrial            
          Coil, Inc. (IC), an S corporation, and each owns 33.33 percent of           
          its stock.  IC was founded in 1982 as a partnership of Pittman,             
          D. Kemp, and P. Kemp.  An election was made on January 1, 1989,             
          to convert IC into an S corporation.                                        
               IC manufactures electric coils according to specifications             
          provided by its customers.  The specifications include the                  
          dimensions, types of materials to be used, and other requirements           
          necessary to manufacture the coils.  IC purchases materials                 
          locally for each job depending on customer specification.                   
          Approximately 90 percent of IC's jobs are completed within 3
