        consumed to any extent during 1982.                                           
        Based on the foregoing, we conclude, and we have found, that                  
        petitioner has accounted for the sources of $152,010 that was                 
        expended by him in 1982. See supra table 4.                                   
        (3) Applications of Funds                                                     
        The first item on the Applications portion of table 4,                        
        supra, Expenditures Reflected on Schedule C in the amount of                  
        $318,112, merely copies the amount that petitioner claims as                  
        deductions on Schedule C of his 1982 tax return. However,                     
        addition of the items listed on the business expenses schedule                
        attached to petitioner's tax return shows the correct total of                
        his claimed business expenses to be $318,062. Because the source              
        and application of funds method requires a determination of                   
        petitioner's actual expenditures, we use as our starting point                
        the correct total of petitioner's claimed business expenses--                 
        $318,062.                                                                     
        We agree with respondent's determinations to subtract                         
        petitioner's claimed depreciation ($6,250) and "write-off"                    
        ($137,000) deductions, because these items do not appear to                   
        involve 1982 expenditures of funds. As shown in table 4, supra,               
        this leaves net expenditures needing funds in the amount of                   
        $174,812.                                                                     
        We also agree with respondent's determination in applying                     
        the source and application of funds method to determine                       
        petitioner's omitted Schedule C income, to take into account as               
        categories of expenditures (1) petitioner's purchase of assets
