               Year           Deficiency        Accuracy-Related Penalty              
               1996            1$15,672       $3,134.40                               
               1997             115,832       3,166.40                                
               1The deficiency determined by respondent for each year included a      
          deficiency of $120 in Federal excise tax under sec. 4973(a).                
               The issues remaining for decision2 are:                                
               (1)  Do payments during each year at issue by Burien Nissan,           
          Inc. (Burien Nissan), to Kenneth Stanford (Mr. Stanford) consti-            
          tute constructive dividends to petitioner Herbert L. Whitehead              
          (Mr. Whitehead) for each such year?  We hold that they do.                  
               (2)  Should the determinations in the notice of deficiency             
          (notice) to increase petitioners’ income for each year at issue             
          with respect to their respective uses of certain Burien Nissan              
          automobiles during each such year be sustained?  We hold that               
          they should.                                                                
               (3)  Are petitioners entitled to a deduction for each year             
          at issue for mortgage interest and property taxes relating to               
          certain real property located in Kirkland, Washington?  We hold             
          that they are not.                                                          
               (4)  Are petitioners entitled to a deduction for 1996 for              
          certain contributions to an individual retirement account (IRA)             
          in the name of petitioner Jennifer L. Whitehead (Ms. Whitehead)             
          in excess of the amount conceded by respondent?  We hold that               



               2Certain computational issues for the years at issue also              
          remain, resolution of which flows automatically from our resolu-            
          tion of the issues that we address herein.
