Payment for independent contractor services for MIS reporting, stock verification and marketing were found to be business-necessary and allowable where rendered by unrelated and independent entities and supported by reports and inventory certificates; therefore the examiner's blanket disallowance based on perceived unreasonableness was rejected and books of account were not struck.
