                                       - 38 -                                         

             understatement is reduced by any portion attributable to an              
             item if there is or was substantial authority for the                    
             taxpayer's treatment of the item, or if the relevant facts               
             affecting the item's tax treatment are adequately disclosed              
             in the return or in a statement attached thereto.  Sec.                  
             6662(d)(2)(B).                                                           
                  Petitioner argues that for each of the years in                     
             issue the understatement is reduced, pursuant to section                 
             6662(d)(2)(B)(ii), by the portion thereof which is                       
             attributable to the personal holding company tax adjust-                 
             ment because that "issue was adequately disclosed and 'set               
             forth' in each of the tax returns filed for the years 1989               
             through 1994."  In the case of petitioner's 1994 return,                 
             petitioner points to the fact that there is attached                     
             thereto a Schedule PH, U.S. Personal Holding Company (PHC)               
             Tax, setting forth petitioner's position that it is not                  
             subject to the tax, accompanied by various materials that                
             discuss personal holding companies and a document entitled               
             "Note #1 - Schedule PH Explanation" that states as follows:
