No. 95-1437

Appeal from the United States District Court

Laurie Snyder (Henry Lawrence Solano, United States Attorney, and Gary D. Gray with her on the briefs), Department of Justice, Washington, D.C., for Claimant-Appellant.

John Lawrence Hamil (Richard C. Morris with him on the brief) of Hamil Professional Corporation, Denver, Colorado, for Debtor-Appellee.

Before BRORBY, Circuit Judge, McKAY, Senior Circuit Judge, and HENRY, Circuit Judge.
BRORBY, Circuit Judge.

	The Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") appeals the district court's denial of late filing penalties and computation of a substantial underpayment of tax penalty assessed against Mr. James Berry Craddock's Chapter 11 bankruptcy estate.  The IRS contends the district court erred in reversing the bankruptcy court's finding that no reasonable cause existed for Mr. Craddock's failure to timely file his federal 1981, 1982, and 1985 tax returns, and affirming the bankruptcy court's computation of understatement of tax penalty for Mr. Craddock's 1985 tax liability.  We exercise jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ 158(d) and 1291, and reverse.

BACKGROUND
	The IRS filed proofs of claims for taxes, interest and penalties against Mr. Craddock's bankruptcy estate relating to tax years 1979-1986.  Most the claims were resolved by agreement except for the two issues in this appeal.  The relevant facts are as follows.
Failure to timely file tax returns.
	During the years 1981-1985, Mr. Craddock owned and operated a real estate development company, Craddock Development Company ("CDC"), as a sole proprietor.  He reported his CDC income in his federal individual income tax returns for each of the relevant tax years.  Despite obtaining extensions, Mr. Craddock filed each of his income tax returns for the years 1981, 1982, and 1985 over ten months late.  Consequently, the IRS assessed late filing penalties under I.R.C. § 6651.  Mr. Craddock objected on grounds his failure to timely file the returns was due to reasonable cause and not willful neglect, an excuse permitted by I.R.C. § 6651(a).  In support of his objection, Mr. Craddock presented his testimony and testimony of Mr. Robert J. Rudnick, a former CDC accountant responsible for reviewing Mr. Craddock's tax returns from July 1982 through 1985.  Their testimony provided the following evidence.

	Mr. Craddock delegated his tax return preparation duties to CDC's accounting staff.  During the years in question, CDC and its related businesses experienced exponential growth and complexity, resulting in the addition of at least twenty-five other businesses arranged as pass-through entities such as partnerships and S-corporations.  To handle the additional workload, Mr. Craddock added another accounting department and increased his accounting personnel from five in the early 1980's to fifty by 1985.  Mr. Craddock hired outside accounting firms to review the tax returns prepared by his accounting staff.  From 1981 through 1985, Mr. Craddock paid approximately $1 million per year (about fifty percent of his total payroll) on accounting and tax staff, and more than $100,000 per year in fees to his independent certified public accounting firm.

	Mr. Craddock also purchased a new accounting system, the Basic-4 system, to help manage his growing business.  However the Basic-4 system failed to perform as quickly and effectively as represented.  Despite his efforts, Mr. Craddock knew his tax returns were still not being timely filed.  Yet, he did not instruct his staff to timely file the returns since he wanted the returns to be accurate.  He also chose not to hire outside accounting firms to help prepare tax returns because he felt "[t]hey were too expensive."

	Mr. Rudnick testified the untimely filing of Mr. Craddock's tax returns was also due to a high rate of personnel turnover, extensive audits of prior years' tax returns which required substantial amounts of the accounting department's time, and the conversion to CDC's accounts from the accrual to the cash basis.

	The bankruptcy court allowed the IRS's late filing penalties for several reasons.  The court cited United States v. Boyle, 469 U.S. 241 (1985) in concluding Mr. Craddock's reliance on his accounting staff for the ministerial task of filing tax returns was not "reasonable cause."  In addition, the court held the growth and complexity of one's business does not constitute an excuse.  Furthermore, the court ruled Mr. Craddock was liable for the penalties because it found "the circumstances were clearly within Mr. Craddock's ability to control."

	The district court reversed, ruling the bankruptcy court improperly applied Boyle to the facts of this case since Mr. Craddock did more than merely rely on his accounting department.  The court held the proper legal standard was whether Mr. Craddock exercised ordinary business care and prudence in attempting to file his returns on time.  The court concluded Mr. Craddock exercised such care, and overruled the bankruptcy court's finding the circumstances were within Mr. Craddock's ability to control.  The IRS appeals the district court's decision.

Substantial Understatement of Tax
	The IRS assessed a $61,825 understatement of tax penalty under I.R.C. § 6661(a) (1985), as an addition to Mr. Craddock's 1985 tax liability.  Under the 1985 version of I.R.C. § 6661, an understatement of tax is the difference between the amount of tax required to be reported on a return, and the amount of tax actually reported, reduced by the amount of tax attributable to any item disclosed, but not reported in the tax return.  I.R.C. § 6661(b)(2)(A), (B).  Mr. Craddock's corrected tax required to be reported in his 1985 tax return was $247,299 after IRS audit adjustments.  He reported no tax.  He disclosed but did not report income of $3,378,385 from the "Airport Raintree" transaction.  Following Treas. Reg. § 1.6661-2(c) and (d), the IRS computed Mr. Craddock's substantial understatement penalty by recomputing his tax shown on his return as if he had properly reported the Airport Raintree transaction for tax purposes, resulting in a revised tax shown on his return of $0, and a substantial understatement of tax of $247,299.

	Mr. Craddock objected to the penalty on the ground that under the statute's plain language, if the understatement was reduced "by that portion of the understatement which is attributable to ... any item with respect to which the relevant facts affecting the item's tax treatment are adequately disclosed," he would not be liable for a penalty.  I.R.C. § 6661(b)(2)(B).  The bankruptcy court agreed, rejecting the IRS's calculation in accordance with Treas. Reg. § 1.6661-(c) and ruling there was no understatement of tax within the meaning of I.R.C. § 6661.  It found no understatement would exist if the income attributable to the Airport Raintree transaction was excluded from the computation of his corrected tax required to be shown on his return.  The district court affirmed by deciding the bankruptcy court's computation was consistent with the purposes of I.R.C. § 6661(b)(2)(B)(ii) "to deter the use of undisclosed questionable reporting decisions" since it "reversed out" the effect of the disclosed Airport Raintree transaction.  The IRS appeals.

	The IRS also filed a motion in this court in July 1997 for leave to file a motion in the bankruptcy court to correct a mistake in the bankruptcy court's judgment filed January 7, 1994, almost three years ago.  The IRS contends the judgment did not accurately reflect the amount of interest contained in the parties' stipulation filed March 9, 1993.  The bankruptcy court's 1994 judgment awarded taxes, penalties and interest specified in the IRS's Corrected Calculations filed with the court on November 3, 1993.  The IRS filed its Corrected Calculations pursuant to the court's request that it calculate negligence penalties, not Mr. Craddock's total tax liability including all penalties and interest.  The IRS's Corrected Calculations and hence the judgment appears not to have included the amount of interest stipulated by the parties.

	Under Fed. R. Civ. P. 60(a) made applicable to bankruptcy cases by Fed. R. Bankr. P. 9024, "[c]lerical mistakes in judgments, [or] orders may be corrected by the court at any time."  However, "while the appeal is pending [such mistakes] may be so corrected with leave of the appellate court."  Fed. R. Civ. P. 60(a).  The IRS claims the district court's order is correctable under Fed. R. Civ. P. 60(a), while Mr. Craddock claims the order is only correctable under Fed. R. Civ. P. 60(b), as a correction of an error caused by inadvertence or mistake.  Under Fed. R. Civ. P. 60(b), the district court can only amend its judgment for mistakes within one year from the date originally awarded.  If Mr. Craddock is correct, the motion must be denied since it was filed beyond the one-year limitation.  Based on our review of the record, it is unclear whether the difference between the stipulated interest and any interest stated in the judgment was due to a clerical error or mistake.  Therefore, unable to rule on the motion, we remand this question to the bankruptcy court to determine whether the judgment contains a clerical error correctable under Fed. R. Civ. P. 60(a).  Despite our remand, we consider this judgment final for purposes of this appeal, since the parties treated the judgment as final, the interest is not an issue on direct appeal, and if the judgment contains a clerical error or mistake, such error generally does not render the judgment invalid.  See Stone v. I.N.S., 514 U.S. 386, 401 (1995) (stating the pendency of a Rule 60(b) motion does not affect the continuity of a prior-taken appeal); Pratt v. Petroleum Prod. Management, Inc. Employee Sav. Plan & Trust, 920 F.2d 651, 655-56 (10th Cir. 1990) (treating judgment as final where judgment referenced another order and inadvertently omitted prejudgment interest not part of the primary relief sought in the parties' appeal; also stating clerical errors in a judgment sought to be corrected under Rule 60(a) do not render the judgment invalid).  We now address the merits of this appeal.

DISCUSSION
Failure to timely file tax return penalties
	The IRS claims the district court erred in reversing the bankruptcy court's finding that no reasonable cause existed for Mr. Craddock's failure to timely file his 1981, 1982, and 1985 tax returns.  We agree.  To avoid a late filing penalty under I.R.C. § 6651(a)(1), the taxpayer bears the "heavy burden" of proving the failure to timely file was both due to reasonable cause and  not due to willful neglect.  Boyle, 469 U.S. at 245 (quoting I.R.C. § 6651(a)(1)); Jackson v. Commissioner, 864 F.2d 1521, 1527 (10th Cir. 1989).  Reasonable cause exists "[i]f the taxpayer exercised ordinary business care and prudence and was nevertheless unable to file the return within the prescribed time."  Treas. Reg. § 301.6651-1(c) (emphasis added).  The term "willful neglect" means "a conscious, intentional failure or reckless indifference."  Boyle, 469 U.S. at 245.

	Whether the elements that constitute "reasonable cause" are present is a question of fact.  Boyle, 469 U.S. at 249 n.8.  What elements constitute "reasonable cause" is a question of law.  Id.  We review the district and bankruptcy courts' legal determinations de novo, and the bankruptcy court's factual findings for clear error.  In re Yellow Cab Coop. Ass'n, 132 F.3d 591, 596-97 (10th Cir. 1997); Jackson, 864 F.2d at 1527.

	We recognize Mr. Craddock exercised some care in attempting to keep up with his accounting and tax functions by selectively increasing his accounting staff, having outside accounting firms review the tax returns, and replacing his antiquated computer system with one recommended by experts.  However, these facts are not enough to escape a late filing penalty under I.R.C. § 6661.  Although the Boyle bright-line test does not apply, since Mr. Craddock did more than just rely on his employees to timely file his tax returns, Mr. Craddock failed to exercise "ordinary business care and prudence" in ensuring his returns were timely filed and failed to show that he was "unable" to file the returns on time.  Mr. Craddock's reasons for his failure to timely file, such as his records or information could not be assimilated fast enough, his accounting staff was overworked, and his computer system was inefficient, are not reasonable cause.  A taxpayer is "expected in the exercise of ordinary business care and prudence ... not [to] take on such a load that he could not fulfill his own legal obligations within the required time."  Dustin v. Commissioner, 467 F.2d 47, 50 (9th Cir. 1972) (internal quotation marks omitted); Oliver v. Commissioner, 73 T.C.M. (CCH) 2035, 2051 (1997) ("[A] taxpayer is not excused from timely filing his income tax return merely because he is overworked."); Merriam v. Commissioner, 70 T.C.M. (CCH) 627 (1995) ("[A] heavy workload and preoccupation with business affairs do not constitute reasonable cause for the untimely filing of a tax return."), aff'd, 107 F.3d 877 (9th Cir. 1997) (table opinion).  In addition, the unavailability of business records or difficulty in obtaining records, unless such records are destroyed, is generally not a reasonable cause for failure to file a tax return.  Robinson v. Commissioner, 68 T.C.M. (CCH) 1158, 1164 (1994); Young v. Commissioner, 58 T.C.M. (CCH) 1, 8-9 (1989), aff'd, 937 F.2d 609 (6th Cir. 1991) (table opinion).  The complexity of one's affairs also does not give reasonable cause.  Edgar v. Commissioner, 56 T.C. 717, 762-63 (1971).  Nor does the preoccupation with audits constitute reasonable cause.  C.f. Morgan v. Commissioner, 807 F.2d 81, 83 (6th Cir. 1986) (ruling the preoccupation with litigation is not reasonable cause).

	In addition, despite his efforts to improve the situation, Mr. Craddock failed to prove that he was unable to file the tax returns on time as required by Treas. Reg. § 301.6651-1(c)(1).  The IRS contends the district court erred in overruling the bankruptcy court's finding that the circumstances surrounding Mr. Craddock's late filed tax returns were within "his ability to control."  The bankruptcy court's findings are not clearly erroneous.  A factual finding is "clearly erroneous when, although there is some evidence to support it, upon review of the entire record the appellate court is left with the definite and firm conviction that a mistake has been made."  Daemi v. Church's Fried Chicken, Inc., 931 F.2d 1379, 1384 (10th Cir. 1991).  Evidence in the record reveals Mr. Craddock knew his businesses were expanding rapidly and his tax affairs were becoming complex.  For over three years, he was aware his accounting staff filed his tax returns over ten months late, yet he continued to delegate his tax return responsibilities to them.  He consciously decided not to engage an outside accounting firm to prepare his tax returns.  He also knew his new Basic-4 computer system was inadequate, yet he continued to use the system until 1987.  As we are convinced no mistake has been made based on these facts, we rule the bankruptcy court's finding was not clearly erroneous.

	To support his position, Mr. Craddock relies on In Re Hudson Oil Co., 91 B.R. 932 (Bankr. D. Kansas 1988).  In that case, a bankruptcy trustee was appointed over the taxpayer's bankruptcy estate three weeks before the taxpayer's 1983 federal tax return was due.  Id. at 936.  Because of the short length of time to the filing deadline and the disorganization of the taxpayer's books, the trustee's accountant filed the return late.  Id. at 939.  Consequently, the IRS imposed a late filing penalty.  Id. at 940.  In response to the trustee's defense of reasonable cause, the bankruptcy court found the trustee did all he could do under the circumstances to file the tax return, but was physically unable to timely file the return due to the short time period to file and the taxpayer's books were in such a disarray.  Id. at 950.

	We find Mr. Craddock's case distinguishable.  Unlike the trustee in Hudson who had only three weeks to prepare and file the tax return, Mr. Craddock knew his tax return deadlines and responsibilities long before the returns were actually due.  In addition, Mr. Craddock controlled his books for a long time before the returns were due, unlike the trustee in Hudson.  Although Mr. Craddock argues his situation is similar to the facts in Hudson, in that he also was unable to prepare the return as a result of his books not being final, we disagree.  A distinguishing feature in Hudson is that the books were not ready through no fault of the trustee, while in Mr. Craddock's case, he knew on an ongoing basis that his books and tax returns were not being prepared timely, yet despite his unsuccessful efforts, he failed to correct the situation.  Furthermore, Mr. Craddock even testified his books were not in disarray since "all the facts were there," but he was just having problems "pulling it all together."  Mr. Craddock's situation is not one where he was unable to prepare his tax returns, but rather where his decisions merely made it challenging.  His decisions do not excuse him from complying with his tax obligations.  Although Mr. Craddock made efforts to comply with the tax law, his situation was not one requiring a flexible approach to tax return deadlines.  As the Fifth Circuit has observed:  "[t]he federal tax statute has 'placed the responsibility for filing (of a) return on time squarely upon each and every taxpayer.'  Charles C. Rice [Rice v. Commissioner], 14 T.C. 503 (1950), at 509.  If every taxpayer who ... was too busy to file a return escaped the penalty for failure to file, our tax system would soon collapse."  Logan Lumber Co. v. Commissioner, 365 F.2d 846, 854 (5th Cir. 1966).

	Mr. Craddock claims it would have been inappropriate for him to file inaccurate tax returns.  A tax return does not have to be completely accurate, but must be based on the best information available, Oliver, 73 T.C.M. (CCH) at 2051, and may be amended later if necessary, Estate of Vriniotis v. Commissioner, 79 T.C. 298, 311 (1982).  Mr. Craddock testified his tax information was available but just not synthesized.  Without more, Mr. Craddock has failed to prove he could not file a return based on the best information available and later amend the return as permitted by law.

	Mr. Craddock also contends that if he filed returns he knew to be inaccurate, he would have risked being subject to I.R.C. § 7206(1) which makes it a felony for "any person" to "[w]illfully make[] and subscribe[] any return ... which he does not believe to be true and correct as to every material matter."   We reject Mr. Craddock's contention.  First of all, the record fails to support Mr. Craddock's assertion the returns would have been inaccurate as to every material matter.  The evidence on this issue is Mr. Craddock's testimony that he "didn't want to file returns that were not right," and Mr. Rudnick's testimony that "there would be a high degree or probability and knowledge that there were errors in the tax return, and our effort was to file the best quality tax return we could."  Second, to commit a felony under I.R.C. § 7206(1), the taxpayer must have the specific intent to violate the law.  See United States v. Pomponio, 429 U.S. 10, 12 (1976); United States v. Winchell, 129 F.3d 1093, 1096-97 (10th Cir. 1997).  The record does not support Mr. Craddock had that intent.

	Finally, the IRS claims the undisputed facts constitute willful neglect as a matter of law.  The IRS contends Mr. Craddock "was aware at all times that his accounting staff was not filing timely returns" and yet purposely did not instruct his accounting staff to prepare the returns because he knew the returns would be inaccurate.  Therefore, relying on Boyle, the IRS claims Mr. Craddock's conscious and intentional failure to timely file his return was willful neglect.  Due to our dispositive holding that Mr. Craddock failed to establish reasonable cause, we do not consider this issue further.

Substantial Understatement of Tax Penalty
	The IRS's final claim is the district and bankruptcy courts erred in computing Mr. Craddock's 1985 understatement of tax penalty pursuant to I.R.C. § 6661.  Since the facts are largely undisputed, we review the bankruptcy and district court's interpretation of law de novo.  Morrissey v. Internal Revenue Service (In re EWC, Inc.), 114 F.3d 1071, 1073 (10th Cir. 1997).

	The 1985 version of I.R.C. § 6661(a) imposed a twenty-five percent penalty on the amount of any underpayment of tax attributable to a substantial understatement of tax.  An understatement means the excess of the correct amount of tax required to be shown on the return for the taxable year, over the amount of tax actually shown on the return for that year.  I.R.C. § 6661(b)(2)(A).  However, the amount of understatement "shall be reduced by that portion of the understatement which is attributable to ... any item with respect to which the relevant facts affecting the item's tax treatment are adequately disclosed in the return or in a statement attached to the return."  I.R.C. § 6661(b)(2)(B).  The penalty's purpose is to deter taxpayers from playing "audit lottery" by taking undisclosed questionable positions on their returns in hopes their aggressive positions will go undetected.  S. Rep. No. 97-494, at  272-73 (1982), reprinted at 1982 U.S.S.C.A.N. 781, 1019.

	After its audit of Mr. Craddock's 1985 tax return, the IRS followed Treas. Reg. § 1.6661-2 in computing a substantial understatement of tax penalty of $61,825.  Under Treas. Reg. § 1.6661-2(c)(1)-(2), an understatement of tax is the excess of the correct amount of tax required to be shown on the return, over the amount of tax shown on the return for the taxable year.  To reduce the understatement for adequately disclosed items, the regulation provides the amount of tax shown on the return is determined by computing the tax as if the items adequately disclosed had been properly reported.  Treas. Reg. § 1.6661-1(d)(2).  Therefore, the IRS computed the amount of tax shown on Mr. Craddock's tax return for purposes of the penalty by adding to the amount of alternative minimum tax (AMT) income actually shown on Mr. Craddock's tax return (-$5,973,827), the post-audit AMT income adjustments of $7,209,720 less the AMT adjustment of $3,378,385 for the adequately disclosed Airport Raintree transaction.  This resulted in -$2,142,492 of AMT income and $0 tax for the amount shown on his return.  Consequently, the IRS deducted $0 (the amount of tax shown on the return) from $247,299, the correct amount of tax after the IRS audit, to arrive at a understatement of tax of $247,299 and a penalty of $61,825 (25% of $247,299).

	The bankruptcy and district courts rejected the IRS's computation, agreeing with Mr. Craddock that all of the understatement of tax, $247,299, relates to the adequately disclosed Airport Raintree transaction, and therefore no penalty was due.  Under the courts' approach, the penalty is computed by taking the corrected amount of AMT income after all audit adjustments, $1,235,893 and reversing out the AMT income adjustment relating to the adequately disclosed Airport Raintree transaction, $3,378,385 arriving at 
-$2,142,492 AMT income, or $0 tax.  From this calculation, the courts reasoned that without the AMT income adjustment from the Airport Raintree transaction, no underpayment would exist.  Consequently, they concluded Mr. Craddock was not liable for any substantial understatement penalty since all of the underpayment was attributable to an adequately disclosed item.  We now must decide which interpretation of I.R.C. § 6661 is proper.

	We recognize the statute, I.R.C. § 6661((b)(2)(B)(ii), is ambiguous as to how a taxpayer computes the "portion of the understatement attributable to" disclosed items.  Pursuant to I.R.C. § 7805(a), Congress delegated authority to the Secretary of the Treasury to "prescribe all needful rules and regulations for the enforcement of [the Internal Revenue Code]."  Under this authority, the Secretary of the Treasury adopted Treas. Reg. § 1.6661-2 to implement I.R.C. § 6661.  We are therefore constrained under Chevron, U.S.A., Inc. v. Natural Resources Defense Council, Inc., 467 U.S. 837, 843-44 (1984), to defer to the regulation if it is not arbitrary, capricious, or manifestly contrary to the statute.  A court "may not substitute its own construction of a statutory provision for a reasonable interpretation made by the administrator of an agency."  Id. at 844.

	We conclude Treas. Reg. § 1.6661-2(d) is a reasonable construction of I.R.C. § 6661.  The regulation implements the statute by effectively reducing the understatement for items properly disclosed in a taxpayer's tax return.  Treas. Reg. § 1.6661-2(d).  Under the regulation, a taxpayer typically benefits in disclosing the tax treatment of an otherwise questionable item by calculating his tax shown on his return as if he had properly reported the item for tax purposes.  Id.

	Mr. Craddock claims the regulation applied to his case thwarts the statute's purpose of promoting disclosure since he disclosed the Airport Raintree transaction but is still subject to an understatement penalty.  Although Mr. Craddock adequately disclosed the Airport Raintree transaction income of $3,378,385, he still allegedly failed to disclose another $3,831,335, which is subject to the understatement penalty.  It is this additional amount of income which Mr. Craddock failed to disclose combined with awkwardness of beginning with negative taxable income that results in an understatement penalty.  We agree with Mr. Craddock that the statute aims to promote the disclosure of questionable reporting positions.  However, we reject Mr. Craddock's, the bankruptcy and district courts' view that by disclosing some amount, yet not disclosing another significant amount of income, a taxpayer can avoid a substantial understatement of tax penalty altogether.  This interpretation would go directly against the purpose of promoting disclosures of all questionable reporting positions.  We note that had Mr. Craddock properly reported the income from the Airport Raintree transaction in his tax return, and treated the undisclosed items as he did, he still would have been liable for the same understatement penalty, $61,825 under the statute.  Therefore, why should he receive a greater benefit for disclosing an item than he would receive if he had actually reported the item as required by the tax law?  This situation would create an anomaly.  Assuming Mr. Craddock had disclosed but not reported all transactions resulting in the audit adjustments, his penalty would be zero.  The result is exactly what the statute aims to promote, the disclosure of questionable tax positions.  Consequently, we rule Treas. Reg. §1.6661-2(d) is a permissible construction of I.R.C. § 6661, and therefore are obligated to defer to the proper calculation made under the regulation.

	Accordingly, we REVERSE the district court's decision that Mr. Craddock established reasonable cause, and therefore reinstate the IRS late filing penalties for years 1981, 1982, and 1985.  We REVERSE the district and bankruptcy court's calculation of the substantial understatement of tax penalty for 1985 and REMAND to the bankruptcy court to calculate the proper penalty in accordance with Treas. Reg. § 1.6661-2(d).  We REMAND the IRS's motion for leave to correct a mistake in the bankruptcy court's judgment to the bankruptcy court to determine whether its 1994 judgment contains a clerical error or mistake for interest.
