               CHIECHI, Judge:  Respondent determined a deficiency in, and            
          an accuracy-related penalty under section 6662(a)1 on, petition-

          $63,095.60, respectively.                                                   
               The issues remaining for decision2 are:                                
               (1)  Did petitioners have unreported taxable income for 1995           
          in the amount of $890,719?  We hold that they did.                          
               (2)  Are petitioners entitled to the depreciation deductions           
          that they claimed for 1995 with respect to two automobiles?  We             
          hold that they are not.                                                     
               (3)  Are petitioners liable for the accuracy-related penalty           
          under section 6662(a)?  We hold that they are.
