          deducted the following expenses and net loss from their purported           
          “Louisiana Creole/Cajun” restaurant business at the 5401-9 S.               
          Broadway property:                                                          
          Expenses:                                                                   
          Interest            $116,121                                                
          Insurance             10,000

          Lease expense          3,000                                                
          132,121                                                                     
                    Net loss              (132,121)                                   
                                                                                     
               On their 1990 return, petitioners failed to elect to                   
          relinquish, under section 172(b)(3)(C), the 3-year carryback                
          period otherwise required by section 172(b)(1)(A) with respect to           
          their claimed 1990 NOL.  If petitioners had carried back the 1990           
          NOL to 1987, 1988, and 1989, as required, their claimed 1990 NOL            
          would have been reduced by $44,820.                                         
               The 1991 NOL carryover arose from a net loss of $73,235                
          petitioners claimed on the Schedule C to their 1991 return.  On             
          their 1991 Schedule C, petitioners reported no income and                   
          deducted the following expenses and net loss from their                     
          restaurant business at the 5401-9 S. Broadway property:
