                                       - 52 -                                         
                         agreed to decrease taxable income to reflect an              
                         interest expense payment made to John Cordes, Inc.           
                    2.   Respondent increased petitioner’s taxable income             
                         by $138,424 to reflect income from misposted                 
                         receipts.  The parties stipulated instead to                 
                         increase taxable income by $46,141.                          
                    3.   Petitioner concedes respondent’s determination               
                         increasing taxable income by $16,000 to reflect              
                         payments on unidentified loans.                              
                    4.   Respondent increased petitioner’s taxable income             
                         by $211,612 to reflect income from unidentified              
                         sources.  The parties stipulated instead to                  
                         increase taxable income by $45,702.                          
                    5.   Respondent increased petitioner’s taxable income             
                         by $27,250 to reflect an overstatement to legal              
                         and professional fees.  The parties stipulated               
                         instead to increase taxable income by $5,000.                
          IV. Docket No. 7369-99, Edmund J. and June J. Cordes:                       
               A.   1994:                                                             
                    1.   The parties stipulated that for 1994, the                    
                         following distributions constitute constructive              
                         dividends from ECI:  $88,225 from diversion of               
                         checks from unidentified loans; $57,609 from                 
                         diversion of tag refunds; and $3,826 from excess             
                         payoffs.                                                     
                    2.   The parties stipulated that for 1994, the                    
                         following distributions constitute constructive              
                         dividends from CFC:  $10,380 from diversion of               
                         checks from bad debt recoveries; $71,910 from                
                         diversion of unbooked CFC income; and $45,702 from           
                         an unexplained source of funds.  Respondent                  
                         concedes that portion of his determination in                
                         excess of the parties’ stipulation.                          
                    3.   Petitioners concede receiving $14,078 in Social              
                         Security benefits in 1994.  The extent to which              
                         they are taxable will be calculated in the Rule              
                         155 computation.                                             
                    4.   Respondent made various computational changes to             
                         petitioners’ taxable income because the increase             
                         in constructive dividends increased petitioners’             
                         taxable income so that the limitation of itemized            
                         deductions was increased, itemized deductions were           
                         eliminated, the standard deduction was allowed,              
                         and the exemption amount under sec. 151(d)(3) was            
                         reduced.  The extent to which these changes affect           
                         petitioners’ ultimate liability will be calculated           
                         in the Rule 155 computation.                                 
                    5.   Respondent determined petitioner had self-                   
                         employment income, that petitioner was liable for            
                         the self-employment tax on that income, and that             
                         petitioner was entitled to a deduction for a
