corporation. In Mrs. Meyer's capacity as secretary of Grand-
Perridine she attended the closing of the Muttontown property on
December 30, 1983, and also acknowledged her liability as a
guarantor of the mortgage on that property as Mr. Meyer's wife.
Mrs. Meyer negotiated and issued checks on behalf of East Coast
in payment of monthly fees on a condominium located in
Huntington, New York, that the corporation had acquired.
Petitioner also managed the day-to-day finances of the Meyer
household through funds her husband supplied her in the form of
checks drawn on corporate accounts, as her husband lacked a
personal checking account. Mrs. Meyer maintained several
certificates of deposit, plus savings and checking accounts, in
her own name at various banks during the late 1980s and early
1990s. Petitioner also negotiated checks drawn on several of her
husband's corporations, including East Coast, Grand-Perridine,
Union Street Consultants, Inc., and American Express Development
Corp. (known alternately as American Express National Development
Corp.) (AED). Such checks paid for, among other things, car
insurance on at least one of the five automobiles registered in
her name between August 1989 and January 1992, housekeeping
