          addition to tax is presumed correct, and petitioner must prove              
          otherwise.  Rule 142(a); Hall v. Commissioner, 729 F.2d 632, 635            
          (9th Cir. 1984), affg. T.C. Memo. 1982-337; Bixby v.                        
          Commissioner, supra at 791-792.                                             
               Petitioner makes no argument with regard to substantial                
          authority or adequate disclosure, and we find that no such                  
          argument exists.  If recomputation of petitioner's tax liability            
          reflects a substantial understatement, petitioner is liable for             
          the addition to tax.                                                        
               To reflect the foregoing and the concessions by the parties,           
                                                  Decision will be entered            
                                             under Rule 155.
