- 3 - W-2 issued to petitioner by Swink. Apparently, petitioner was required to reimburse Swink for certain trading losses and customer bad debts. It is unclear whether the compensation reported on the Form W-2 is net of reimbursements petitioner made to Swink for trading losses and customer bad debts. Sometime in 1992 or 1993, petitioner discarded all records relating to 1989 that he might have kept. Respondent's Information Returns Master File transcript indicates that two payors issued information returns to petitioner for 1989, one from Swink and the other from Worthen Bank and Trust Co. The notice of deficiency upon which this case is based was issued and mailed to petitioner on September 18, 1996. In that notice of deficiency, adjustments to petitioner's 1989 income were made as though he did not file a Federal income tax return for that year. Specifically, respondent (1) increased petitioner's income by the amount of compensation reported on the W-2 issued to petitioner by Swink; (2) increased petitioner's income by $44 attributable to a distribution from Worthen Bank and Trust Co.; (3) allowed petitioner a personal exemption deduction; and (4) allowed petitioner the standard deduction applicable to a single individual. Also in the notice of deficiency, respondent determined that the additions to tax under sections 6651(a)(1) and 6654 are applicable.Page: Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 Next
