                                       - 10 -                                         
          California on September 9, 2003.  That petition was denied on               
          October 22, 2003.  No other actions concerning the validity of              
          the buyout were pending on the date of trial.                               
          E.   Petitioner’s Basis in Green Hills Stock, Distributive Share            
               of Income From Green Hills, and Income Tax Returns for 2000            
               and 2001                                                               
               Petitioner’s basis in Green Hills stock was $8,315,584 on              
          December 31, 1999.  Green Hills reported $4,275,909 as                      
          petitioner’s distributive share of income through October 13,               
          2000.4                                                                      
               Petitioner filed Federal income tax returns for 2000 and               
          2001 on the cash receipts and disbursements method of accounting.           
          On his 2000 return, petitioner did not include a distributive               
          share of income from Green Hills.  Petitioner did not include in            
          income on his 2000 and 2001 returns the $41,585,388 payment or              
          any of the interest credited to the account in which he had                 
          deposited that payment.                                                     





               4  In the notice of deficiency, respondent determined that             
          petitioner’s basis in Green Hills was $12,523,085 for purposes of           
          determining petitioner’s gain on the sale of Green Hills stock on           
          Oct. 13, 2000.  Adding a $4,275,909 distributive share of income            
          to petitioner’s basis in Green Hills of $8,315,584 on Dec. 31,              
          1999, does not produce the basis determined by respondent.  The             
          record does not show whether respondent determined petitioner’s             
          basis correctly.  Thus, if we decide that the $41,585,388 is                
          includable in petitioner’s income in the year received, the                 
          parties shall compute the amount of gain under Rule 155.
