          including a regular monthly annuity.  He would not, however, have           
          been entitled to receive a Transfer Refund because a Transfer               
          Refund is only payable to those who elect to transfer from the              
          Retirement System to the Pension System.                                    
               As a result of transferring from the Retirement System to              
          the Pension System, petitioner became, and presently is, a member           
          of the Pension System.  As a member of the Pension System,                  
          petitioner became entitled, upon retirement, to receive a                   
          retirement benefit based upon his salary and his creditable years           
          of service, specifically including those years of creditable                
          service recognized under the Retirement System.  However, because           
          petitioner received the Transfer Refund on account of                       
          transferring from the Retirement System to the Pension System,              
          petitioner's monthly annuity is less than the monthly annuity               
          that he would have received if he had not transferred to the                
          Pension System but had ultimately retired under the Retirement              
          System.                                                                     
               On March 17, 1992, petitioner applied for a normal service             
          retirement from the Pension System, effective July 1, 1992.                 
          Petitioner is currently receiving a pension from the Pension                
          System.                                                                     
               On their Federal income tax return (Form 1040) for 1990,               
          petitioners reported "total pensions and annuities" in the amount           
          of $477,088.  Of this amount, petitioners reported $456,611 as              
          the taxable amount.
