            1040) for 1990 and 1991, and both petitioners signed these Forms                              
            1040 and dated them October 19, 1992.  Petitioner was uncertain                               
            of the proper treatment of his earnings reported on the Forms W-2                             
            as compared to the nonemployee compensation reported on the Forms                             
            1099, but he believed that any questions would be resolved during                             
            the meeting.                                                                                  
                  On or about October 19, 1992, petitioner met with an IRS                                
            representative in response to the IRS letter; petitioner's wife                               
            did not attend the meeting.  The IRS representative had computer                              
            printouts of IRS records.  She revised some of petitioner's                                   
            figures and wrote in others.                                                                  
                  For 1990, the IRS representative revised Line 7 wages of                                
            $144,707.23 to zero, not including any Form W-2 income.  She                                  
            prepared or completed two Schedules C to compute Line 12 business                             
            income.  On one Schedule C she listed the $60,263.40 W-2 wage                                 
            income and no expenses; on the other Schedule C that petitioner                               
            had partially filled out, the Forms 1099 nonemployee compensation                             
            was listed as gross receipts of $83,173.97.  For 1991, she                                    
            entered the Form W-2 income in Line 7 and used petitioner's                                   
            Schedule C expenses to compute Line 12 business income.  The IRS                              
            representative completed Schedules SE Self-Employment Tax for                                 
            both 1990 and 1991.                                                                           
                  The following charts summarize selected information from the                            
            Forms W-2 and 1099 attached to the returns, the returns as                                    
            partially filled out by petitioner (original returns), and as
