The stipulation of facts and the attached exhibits are incorporated herein by this reference. Petitioner resided in Toledo, Ohio, on the date the petition was filed in this case. Petitioner filed a Federal income tax return for taxable year 2000. As is relevant here, petitioner reported on his return gross income of $1,824 from a refund of taxes; a personal exemption deduction of $2,800; an itemized deduction of $5,445 for taxes paid; miscellaneous itemized deductions of $27,057 for unreimbursed employee business expenses; taxable income of $21,569; and a tax liability of $3,236. Petitioner did not report AMT liability in any amount. In the notice of deficiency, respondent did not adjust any of the above items reported by petitioner. Respondent’s sole adjustment was his determination that petitioner was liable for the AMT in the amount of $2,301.
