             argument and sustain respondent's determination that all                 
             of H&B's payments toward the purchase of the Lincoln Mark                
             VII, and its payments for insurance, tires, and other                    
             expenses related to the automobile, constitute income to                 
             petitioners.                                                             

             Converted Payments From Trans State Pavers                               
                  During 1988, petitioner signed four checks drawn on                 
             H&B's First Interstate account and made payable to First                 
             Interstate in the total amount of $18,033.42.  The proceeds              
             of these checks were used to purchase cashier's checks                   
             totaling $18,026.42, each of which was payable to Jordan                 
             Distributors.  Also in 1988, petitioner signed three checks              
             drawn on H&B's First Interstate account and made payable to              
             cash in the total amount of $17,950.  The proceeds of these              
             checks were also used to purchase cashier's checks payable               
             to Jordan Distributors.                                                  
                  The above cashier's checks were used to purchase fuel               
             from Jordan Distributors for delivery and sale to Trans                  
             State.  There is no evidence that petitioner ever deposited              
             the funds he received from Trans State into any of H&B's                 
             bank accounts or otherwise paid the funds to H&B.                        
             Respondent determined that petitioner converted the money                
             he received from Trans State to his own personal use.                    
             Respondent determined that the amount of money so
