                                        - 6 -                                         
          Because MCP served as his agent for making the sales and                    
          receiving the sales income, the only limitations placed on                  
          petitioner’s receipt of that income were self-imposed and                   
          therefore ineffective to achieve a deferral for tax purposes.               
               On this record, we conclude that petitioner constructively             
          received the yearend value-added payments during the respective             
          taxable years in issue.                                                     
               Lastly, because we have held petitioners taxable in 1994 and           
          1995, we find that petitioners are entitled to offsetting                   
          adjustments in each of the respective years to take into account            
          the yearend value-added payments previously reported as income              
          for those years.  Sec. 481.                                                 
               Contentions we have not addressed are irrelevant, moot, or             
          meritless.                                                                  
                                                  Decision will be entered            
                                             under Rule 155.
