          purely mathematical adjustment relating to petitioner’s incorrect           
          use of the tax tables in computing her tax.1                                
                                 FINDINGS OF FACT                                     
               Petitioner was a resident of Miami, Florida, at the time of            
          the filing of her petition in this proceeding.  Petitioner timely           
          filed a 1999 U.S. Individual Income Tax Return (Form 1040).  On             
          that return, petitioner reported taxable distributions from                 
          “pensions and annuities” in the amounts of $6,700 and $9,514,               
          which resulted in an adjusted gross income of $16,214.                      
          Petitioner attached to the 1999 Form 1040 a Form 5329, Additional           
          Taxes Attributable to IRAs, Other Qualified Retirement Plans,               
          Annuities, Modified Endowment Contracts, and MSAs, indicating               
          that $3,293.20 of the $6,700.00 distribution was for qualified              
          medical expenses and excepted from the 10-percent additional tax            
          for early distribution.  Petitioner also contends that she                  
          attached a second Form 5329 to her return for 1999, seeking to              
          except the $9,514 distribution from the 10-percent additional tax           
          for early distribution from qualified retirement plans, but the             
          copy of the 1999 return stipulated by the parties does not                  
          contain the Form 5329 with respect to the $9,514 taxable                    
          distribution.                                                               



               1 Petitioner presented no evidence and made no argument                
          concerning the computational adjustment and, accordingly,                   
          respondent’s determination on that item is sustained.
