          effect at the time that the petition was filed.2  The decision to           
          be entered is not reviewable by any other court, and this opinion           
          should not be cited as authority.                                           
               Respondent determined a deficiency in petitioners’ Federal             
          income tax of $949 for the taxable year 2000.                               
               After petitioners’ concessions,3 the sole issue for decision           
          is whether $7,8344 of interest income credited to petitioners’              
          bank accounts in 2000 constitutes gross income in that year.5  We           
          hold that it does.                                                          
          Background                                                                  
               Some of the facts have been stipulated, and they are so                
          found.  We incorporate by reference the parties’ stipulation of             
          facts and accompanying exhibits.                                            
               At the time that the petition was filed, petitioners resided           
          in Dayton, Washington.                                                      
               During the year in issue, petitioners maintained a savings             


               2  Unless otherwise indicated, all subsequent section                  
          references are to the Internal Revenue Code in effect for 2000,             
          the taxable year in issue.  All Rule references are to the Tax              
          Court Rules of Practice and Procedure.                                      
               3  Petitioners concede respondent’s determinations                     
          increasing their taxable dividends and increasing their taxable             
          pension and annuity benefits.                                               
               4  All amounts are rounded to the nearest dollar.                      
               5  In the notice of deficiency, respondent determined that             
          petitioners failed to report $8,910 of interest income.  The                
          parties stipulated, however, that the amount of interest income             
          in dispute is $7,834.
