          Sport on October 18, 1989, at Monarch Bank.  After a period of              
          inactivity, the Dana Niguel Bank account was closed on June 8,              
          1990, with a final withdrawal of $2,388.87.  Using records for              
          these accounts, respondent determined petitioner’s net income               
          from Bicycle Sport as follows:

               We consider the sustainability of respondent’s analysis                
          first by addressing whether petitioner has shown entitlement to             
          further offsetting or deductible expenditures and, second, by               
          deciding whether petitioner has proven nontaxable sources for the           
          deposits in the Bicycle Sport accounts.                                     
               In performing the above calculations, respondent treated as            
          deductible business expenses all checks drawn on the Bicycle                
          Sport accounts except for those determined to be owner draws.               
          For the majority of these sums characterized as nondeductible               
          draws, the record contains copies of checks which are made
