Arlene reentered the work force on a part-time basis. Beginning
in 1974, and thereafter, she sold advertising space in the South
Shore Record, a local newspaper, for which she was paid
commissions. She also wrote a weekly drama review column for the
same paper, for which she was paid nominal amounts.
At the end of each year, petitioners' accountant, Paul
Kreindler (Kreindler), would ask Arlene to prepare and submit to
him handwritten statements reflecting her travel and other
business expenses, as well as Forms 1099 and/or Forms W-2 that
she received from her employers (including, in 1978, Atl. Beach
Tennis), for the purpose of preparing Schedule C to reflect
Arlene's commissions, fees from writing, and any other income-
earning activities.
Petitioners reported Schedule C income from Arlene's
activities as follows:
Year Gross Receipts Net Profit
1976 $5,715 $3,017
1977 7,663 4,880
1978 7,724 4,941
Petitioner used the money she earned to purchase art works--
mostly works on paper--and a fur jacket, because Harvey refused
to give her money for these purposes. Arlene also used money she
received from her father to buy one or two things. Arlene never
received any large, unusual, or lavish gifts from her husband.
