                                        - 3 -                                         
          section 66591 for valuation overstatement, in the amount of                 
          $495.05 under section 6653(a)(1) for negligence, and under                  
          section 6653(a)(1)(B)2 in an amount equal to 50 percent of the              
          interest due on the amount of the underpayment attributable to              
          negligence.  Respondent also determined that interest on the                
          deficiency accruing after December 31, 1984, would be calculated            
          at 120 percent of the statutory rate under section 6621(c).  Both           
          the increased rate of interest and the additional interest for              
          negligence were calculated on the amount of $1,899.                         
               In a second notice of deficiency dated September 6, 1989,              
          respondent determined a deficiency in petitioners' 1979 joint               
          Federal income tax in the amount of $262.  The deficiency for               
          taxable year 1979 was due entirely to the disallowance of an                
          investment credit carryback from 1982.                                      
               In a notice of deficiency dated October 5, 1989, respondent            
          determined a deficiency in petitioner Allan J. Becker's 1981                
          Federal income tax in the amount of $15,377, and an addition to             
          tax for that year in the amount of $4,613 under section 6659 for            
          valuation overstatement.  Respondent also determined that                   
          interest on the deficiency accruing after December 31, 1984,                

          1    In the alternative to the sec. 6659 addition to tax,                   
          respondent determined an addition to tax under sec. 6661 for                
          substantial understatement of liability.                                    
          2    For taxable year 1982, the addition to tax for negligence in           
          an amount equal to 50 percent of the interest due on the amount             
          of the underpayment attributable to negligence was provided for             
          under sec. 6653(a)(2), not sec. 6653(a)(1)(B).
