                                       - 81 -                                         
          to generate the management fees and sales income (from                      
          Management’s then “transferring” to Ranches large numbers of                
          animals “received” from the partnerships) respondent determined.            
          Accordingly, we hold that the 1987, 1988, 1989, and 1990 farm               
          income adjustments respondent determined against Management–-to             
          the extent of the management fee income and the sale income from            
          Ranches--cannot be sustained.  In all other respects, the Court             
          sustains the 1987, 1988, 1989, and 1990 farm income adjustments             
          respondent determined.  See Rules 142(a), 240(a).                           
               Petitioners offered no evidence concerning the 1990 section            
          1231 gain adjustment respondent determined against Management               
          from its sale of certain other assets.  Consequently, the Court             
          sustains respondent’s determination in the FPAA that Management             
          had $720,526 of section 1231 gain for the 1990 tax year.  See               
          Rules 142(a), 240(a).                                                       
               Petitioners offered no evidence concerning the 1988, 1989,             
          and 1990 taxable distribution adjustments respondent determined             
          Management had from its receipt of assets from Ranches and Hoyt &           
          Sons Ranch Properties.  On brief, respondent acknowledges that              
          since it was unclear whether Management received $8,160,745 of              
          the assets in 1989 or 1990, the same $8,160,745 amount was                  
          included in both 1989 and 1990.  Respondent now states that he              
          believes the $8,160,745 amount belongs in Management’s income for           
          1990.  Consequently, the Court sustains respondent’s
