- 31 -- 31 - the parties stipulated as follows: 24. Petitioners made the following paryments [sic] in 1989: $474,467.56 Payments to Corporation 6,584.06 Payments of Corporate Expenses * * * * * * * 27. Petitioners made the following payments in 1990: $52,462.00 Payments to Corporation 3,693.40 Payments of Corporate Expenses Under the foregoing unqualified stipulations, the parties have agreed that during 1989 and 1990 petitioners made payments to, or on behalf of, K & H in the amounts of $481,051.62 and $56,155.40, respectively. On brief, petitioners appear to maintain that the foregoing stipulations set forth the minimum payments that they made and that they made additional payments during those years to, or on behalf of, K & H and Ms. Velilla that increased the aggregate amounts of such payments for 1989 and 1990 to $529,023.92 and $89,643.25, respectively.19 To support their contention, they rely on (1) petitioners’ schedules of expenses and (2) Ms. Harp's testimony. Respondent disputes petitioners' contention. 19 Contrary to petitioners' position on brief, petitioner testi- fied that the aggregate amount of the deposits into petitioners' accounts during each of the years at issue of K & H's funds and Ms. Velilla's funds were used to make payments to, or on behalf of, K & H and Ms. Velilla. We question the reliability of that testimony. Petitioner's testimony on that point also is incon- sistent with petitioners' schedules of expenses that purport to show that only a portion of those deposits were used to make payments to, or on behalf of, K & H and Ms. Velilla.Page: Previous 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 Next
