<<I would assume that the construction and equipment get capitalized, as usual.>> --- true << What about manufacturing payroll, lease payments, and other operating costs during ramp-up and for product manufactured at-risk pending MCA/FDA factory approval>> -- most all of this will get expensed. That is, reduce 4th 1/4 income. -- On a sidenote, I advise clients to sell stocks and take tax losses all the time. But on a stock like VVUS, which has so much going for it; and is so cheap at the moment, I think tax loss selling at this point is crazy. Out.
