                                        - 24 -                                        
          reasons for failing to file timely, which we have found to be               
          unconvincing.  Petitioners do not contend that they had                     
          substantial authority for the understatements or that their tax             
          returns disclosed enough facts to enable respondent to identify             
          the potential controversy.  See sec. 6662(d)(2)(B); Schirmer v.             
          Commissioner, 89 T.C. 277, 285-286 (1987).  We conclude that                
          petitioners are liable for the additions to tax under section               
          6661(a) for 1985 and 1987 and the accuracy-related penalties                
          under section 6662(b)(2) and (d) for 1989 and 1990 if the                   
          calculations under Rule 155 show that the understatements are               
          substantial for purposes of section 6661(a) or section                      
          6662(d)(1).                                                                 
               To reflect concessions and the foregoing,                              

          Decision will be entered                                                    
          under Rule 155.
