Rev. Rul. 89-29
LIFO; inventory price index computation method; appropriate
representative month. The Commissioner will not consent to a taxpayer's request to change
its month for selecting price indexes under the IPI regulations unless the previously

purchases during the year.
Rev. Rul. 89-32

payment of estate tax is extended under section 6166 of the Code and a deficiency is
assessed after the estate has timely made one or more interest payments, the 4-percent
rate prescribed by section 6601(j) is applied to determine the amount of interest that
should have been paid in each annual payment. Interest on any underpayment of interest
thus determined accrues at the prevailing rate under section 6601(a) from the data the
interest should have been paid under section 6166(f)(1) had the return shown the correct
tax liability. Rev. Rul. 67-1612 clarified and amplified.
