               On brief, respondent asks the Court to find the following              
          deficiencies in, and additions to, petitioner's Federal income              
          tax:2                                                                       
                                     Additions to Tax

                1983      $5,277         $641           $114                          
                1984      1,331          100            3                             
                1985      2,059          515            118                           
                1986      1,8373         --             --                            
               The issues remaining for decision are:4                                

          2  Respondent also asserts on brief that petitioner has prepay-             
          ment credits of $2,714, $1,015, and $0 for 1983, 1984, and 1985,            
          respectively.                                                               
          3  Although respondent contends on brief that petitioner has un-            
          reported income for 1986 resulting in a deficiency for that year            
          of $1,837, she concedes that petitioner has a prepayment credit             
          of $2,626 and thus an overpayment of $789 for that year.  How-              
          ever, respondent further contends that that overpayment for 1986            
          is barred by the statutory period of limitations.  We shall not             
          address respondent's contentions about the deficiency or the                
          overpayment for 1986 because (1) the parties have stipulated that           
          there is no deficiency in, or additions to, petitioner's Federal            
          income tax for 1986, and (2) petitioner does not dispute, and we            
          conclude that she concedes, respondent's position that the over-            
          payment for 1986 is barred by the statutory period of limita-               
          tions.                                                                      
          4  Petitioner contends for the first time in her answering brief            
          that she had a dependent during each of the years at issue for              
          whom she is entitled to a dependency exemption.  It is well                 
          settled that the Court will not consider issues raised for the              
          first time on brief when to do so would prevent the opposing                
          party from presenting evidence that that party might have prof-             
          fered if the issue had been timely raised.  DiLeo v. Commis-
