- 3 - 1995, respectively (the audit years).1 On brief, respondent concedes the deductibility of all but $140,776 and $19,450 of the disallowed amounts. We accept such concession, and, thus, with respect to the principal adjustments, we need decide only the deductibility of such remaining amounts for the audit years. Petitioner also argues that, because respondent’s rationale with respect to the principal adjustments changed subsequent to the notice, respondent has raised a “new matter” with respect to the principal adjustments, with respect to which respondent bears the burden of proof. Finally, we must also decide whether petitioner is liable for the accuracy-related penalties determined under section 6662(a). Unless otherwise indicated, all section references are to the Internal Revenue Code in effect for the years in issue, and all Rule references are to the Tax Court Rules of Practice and Procedure. FINDINGS OF FACT Some facts have been stipulated and are so found. The stipulation of facts, with attached exhibits, is incorporated herein by this reference. 1 The deficiencies also reflect adjustments to petitioner’s deductions for FICA taxes and charitable contributions, which are derivative of the principal adjustments and are not directly disputed by petitioner. We do not further discuss those adjustments.Page: Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 Next
