                                        - 2 -                                         
          122.  Neither party has requested a further evidentiary hearing.            
               Petitioners claimed a pass-through loss and an investment              
          credit from SLA on their 1982 Federal income tax return.                    
          Respondent disallowed the loss and credit and determined a                  
          deficiency in petitioners' 1982 Federal income tax and additions            
          to tax under sections 6653(a)(1) and 66591 in the respective                
          amounts of $27,552, $1,377.60, and $8,265.60.  Respondent also              
          determined that petitioners are liable for an addition to tax               
          under section 6653(a)(2) in the amount of 50 percent of the                 
          interest due on the deficiency and that the increased interest              
          provisions of section 6621(c) applied.  Assuming that the                   
          adjustments pertaining to SLA are properly before this Court in             
          this proceeding, petitioners and respondent have reached an                 
          agreement as to the deficiency and additions to tax.  The issue             
          remaining is whether respondent’s adjustments to the loss and               
          credit from SLA and the additions to tax resulting therefrom are            
          properly before the Court in this proceeding.  If SLA was formed            
          prior to September 4, 1982, it is not subject to the partnership            
          procedural provisions enacted as sections 6221 through 6231 by              
          section 402(a) of the Tax Equity & Fiscal Responsibility Act of             
          1982 (TEFRA), Pub. L. 97-248, 96 Stat. 648, and respondent’s                
          adjustments are properly before the Court in this proceeding.  On           



               1  Unless otherwise indicated, section references are to the           
          Internal Revenue Code in effect for the year in issue.
