OPINION.

Murdock, Judge:

The parties have stipulated that if the income of Products should not be taxed to Distillery under section 22 (a) or section 45, then it had a fiscal year ended July 31, 1944, and its correct net income for that period was $104,190.40. The Commissioner, in determining the deficiencies against Distillery, disregarded the fiscal year of Products, computed amounts to represent its net income for each of the calendar years 1943 and 1944, and added those amounts to the income of Distillery. He purported to act under section 45 or 22 (a) of the Internal Revenue Code.
