               Check Nos. 2084 and 2092--Acapulco.  In April 1985,                    
          petitioner, Betsy, and the children went to Acapulco, Mexico.               
          Petitioner and Betsy charged the following items, totaling                  
          $3,682.21, for this trip on Markette credit cards:  $2,988.46               
          (Acapulco Princess)--petitioner signing the charge slip made on             
          his card, $426.21 (Viajes Mexicanos de Acapulco) and $187.55                
          (Aeronaves de Mexico)--Betsy signing the charge slip made on her            
          card, and $79.99 (Andersons)--petitioner signing the charge slip            
          made on Betsy’s card.  The purpose of this trip was personal--a             
          family spring vacation, and not to conduct Sley Corporations                
          business.  The first, second, and fourth items, totaling                    
          $3,494.66, appear on the American Express May invoice, and were             
          paid for by Marquette check No. 2084.  The third item, $187.55,             
          appears on the American Express June invoice, and was paid for by           
          Marquette check No. 2092.                                                   
               Check Nos. 2092 and 2098--Stamford.  The American Express              
          June invoice includes a $59.6312 charge at LePavillon, in                   
          Stamford, Connecticut.  Petitioner charged this item on his                 
          American Express credit card on June 8, 1985.  Petitioner and               
          Betsy went to Stamford from New York to attend a bar mitzvah--a             
          personal purpose--and not on Sley Corporations’ business.  This             
          charge was paid for by Markette check No. 2092.                             


               12   The charge slip shows $59.93, but the American Express            
          invoice shows only $59.63, so Markette paid only $59.63.
