After concessions,1 the issues for decision are: 1. Relating to respondent's use of the net worth method: a. Whether respondent's determination was arbitrary. We hold that it was not. b. Whether respondent adequately investigated leads relating to petitioners' cash hoard. We hold that respondent did. 2. Relating to petitioners' cash on hand on December 31, 1982, 1983, 1984, 1985, 1986, and 1987: a. Whether petitioners had $140,000 in cash on December 31, 1982, as respondent contends; more than $660,000, as petitioners contend; or some other amount. We find that petitioners had $279,000 in cash on December 31, 1982. 1 Respondent concedes that for 1983 to 1987, petitioners may deduct additional depreciation of $3,631, $9,255, $11,902, $11,736, and $11,736, respectively, on their property at 3600 Glenstone Avenue, Springfield, Missouri.
