                                        - 8 -                                         
          income” to be the taxpayer’s adjusted gross income with certain             
          amounts disregarded and certain amounts included.                           
               In the present case, we conclude that petitioner’s modified            
          adjusted gross income would not be higher than that of Ms.                  
          Rodriguez, given that her wage income alone was greater than                
          petitioner’s total income for 2001.  Accordingly, we sustain                
          respondent’s determination on this issue.                                   
               Reviewed and adopted as the report of the Small Tax Case               
          Division.                                                                   
               To reflect the foregoing,                                              
                                                   Decision will be entered           
                                             for respondent.
