               Respondent did not allow payments of $42,942 and $31,710               
          reported by petitioners for 1989 and 1990, respectively, as                 
          expenses of a 1986 Peterbilt truck and a 1988 Peterbilt truck.2             
          Mr. Tillman acquired the 1986 Peterbilt in January 1986, and he             
          began using it in Trucking’s business during that year.  In                 
          acquiring the 1986 Peterbilt, Mr. Tillman signed three agreements           
          with Pro Am Leasing, Inc. (Pro Am).  The first agreement was                
          entitled “MASTER LEASE/PURCHASE AGREEMENT”.  This agreement                 

          1 Petitioners erroneously reported that these expenses                      
          totaled $183,883.  The total is actually $164,973.                          
          2 However, she did allow petitioners to deduct the portion                  
          of these payments that she determined was interest.  She also let           
          petitioners deduct the depreciation that they reported for the              
          1988 Peterbilt.
