-4- Following termination as president of Cal-American, petitioner provided consulting services to Arrowhead General Insurance Agency (Arrowhead). Arrowhead issued petitioner a 1989 Form W-2, reflecting $74,503.25 in wages and $8,041 in Federal and $3,956.31 in State income taxes withheld. Individual Retirement Account In February 1989, an individual retirement account, account No. 063-19555-6, was established on petitioner’s behalf at Security Pacific National Bank. The account was classified as a “SEP”, and Cal-American was the named employer. Petitioner deposited $11,250 into the account at that time. Petitioners claim that petitioner received the $11,250 from Westech, in addition to his wage and severance payments. Petitioners did not include the $11,250 in income for 1989. On their 1989 tax return, petitioners claimed a $23,822.36 deduction for payments made to a “self-employed SEP”, which respondent disallowed. The record does not indicate how petitioners determined the $23,822.36.Page: Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 Next
