          D.   Petitioner’s Tax Returns for 1987-92                                   
               Petitioner filed his 1987 Federal income tax return on                 
          October 14, 1988.  On it, he claimed that he should be credited             
          with a $70,000 estimated tax payment which he believed had been             
          carried forward from the $150,000 payment.  However, because                
          respondent had reallocated the $150,000 estimated tax payment               
          between petitioner and his wife as described above, respondent              
          disallowed petitioner’s carryover of the $70,000 credit from the            
          $150,000 payment.                                                           
               Petitioner filed tax returns for 1988 through 1992 on which            
          he carried forward estimated tax payments as follows:                       

                     Year               Claimed estimated tax payments                
                                                 carryforward                         
          1988                     $62,592                                            
          1989                     62,592                                             
          1990                     52,799                                             
          1991                     52,799                                             
          1992                     45,314                                             
               Respondent disallowed petitioner’s carryovers of estimated             
          tax payments to tax years 1988, 1989, 1991, and 1992 because                
          respondent had reallocated most of the $150,000 tax payment to              
          petitioner’s wife, leaving nothing for petitioner to carry                  
          forward to those years.  Respondent assessed additional taxes for           
          petitioner for 1989 on September 14, 1992.
