          In the amended answer, respondent asserts revised deficiencies in           
          petitioners' Federal income tax and additions to tax and                    
          accuracy-related penalties for the taxable years 1990 and 1991 as           
          follows:                                                                    
                                        Additions           Accuracy-Related          
                                             to Tax         Penalties                 
          Year           Deficiency         Sec. 6651(a)(1)         Sec. 6662(a)      
          1990           $92,568        $23,142             $18,514

               Unless otherwise indicated, all section and Code references            
          are to the Internal Revenue Code in effect for the years in                 
          issue, and all Rule references are to the Tax Court Rules of                
          ractice and Procedure.  After concessions,1 the issues to be                
          decided are as follows:2                                                    
               1.  Whether petitioners have substantiated their claimed               
          deductions on Schedule C for certain business expenses;                     
               2.  whether petitioners are entitled to certain passive                
          losses;                                                                     


          1    Petitioners conceded certain adjustments relating to                   
          unreported interest income, an IRA distribution and a penalty               
          thereon, a self-employment health insurance deduction, and a                
          self-employment tax deduction.  Additionally, at trial,                     
          petitioners conceded the sec. 6651(a)(1) additions to tax.  We              
          therefore do not consider those additions.                                  
               Respondent conceded that petitioners are entitled to                   
          additional itemized deductions for real estate taxes in the                 
          amount of $7,732, an interest expense in the amount of $15,968,             
          and charitable contributions in the amount of $7,715.                       
          2    In their petition, petitioners disputed respondent's                   
          disallowance of a Schedule A deduction for real estate taxes to             
          the extent of $6,106 for petitioners' 1990 taxable year.                    
          Petitioners, however, make no argument on brief concerning that             
          issue.  Consequently, we consider it to have been conceded.                 
          Rybak v. Commissioner, 91 T.C. 524, 566 (1988).
