          of $5,859, and an addition to tax due of $3,6204 under section                 
          6654(a) for failure to pay estimated taxes.  Petitioner made no                
          Federal tax deposits and had no withholding credit during 1988.                
          Further, petitioner did not remit a payment with the 1988 return.              
               On his 1989 Federal income tax return petitioner reported a               
          $66,742 loss.  He filed with his return an IRS Form 1045,                      
          Application for Tentative Refund, computing the  net operating                 
          loss for 1989 and electing a carryback of the loss to                          
          petitioner's 1988 tax year.  On June 11, 1990, the IRS allowed                 
          the 1989 net operating loss carryback and applied it to                        
          petitioner's 1988 account as of April 18, 1990.  The 1989 net                  
          operating loss reduced petitioner's 1988 income tax liability by               
          $19,519.  After the carryback of the 1989 loss to 1988,                        
          petitioner’s account reflected the following amounts still owing               
          for 1988:                                                                      

                    $31,223.00  Income tax                                               
                    5,859.00  Self-employment tax                                        
                    2,177.00  Sec. 6654, Failure to pay estimated taxes                  
                    6,342.53  Sec. 6651(a)(2), Failure to pay tax                        
                     6,929.17  Interest to April 18, 1990                                
                    $52,530.70  Total                                                    





               4    In an amended return, petitioner recalculated the                    
          addition to tax under sec. 6654(a) reducing it to $2,177.  For                 
          our purposes here, the amended amount was accepted by the                      
          Internal Revenue Service.
