          estate activity.  On Schedule E, they again reported no rental              
          income from the Morningside Heights dwelling and claimed                    
          deductions of $1,322 for taxes, depreciation, and insurance                 
          expenses, for a net loss from this property of $1,322.                      
               The following is a list of the specific Schedule C expenses            
          at issue for which petitioners claimed and respondent allowed               
          deductions in the statutory notice of deficiency.                           
          For 1999:                                                                   

                                             Claimed        Allowed                   
               Deductions                    On Sch. C      On Sch. C                 
               Car and truck expenses        $17,446        $1,050                    
               Travel/meals/entertainment     1,500         304                       
               Utilities                     1,220          223                       

          For 2000:                                                                   
                                             Claimed        Allowed                   
               Deductions                    On Sch. C      On Sch. C                 
               Car and truck expenses        $7,800         1 $  305                  
               Travel/meals/entertainment    1,500          248                       
               Utilities                     1,300          1,300                     

               1 The stipulations incorrectly state that respondent allowed           
          $395 for this expense for 2000.  The record reflects that $7,800            
          was claimed and $7,495 was disallowed in the explanation of                 
          adjustments, for a difference of $305.  The Court is not bound by           
          a stipulation of fact that appears contrary to the facts                    
          disclosed by the record.  Rule 91(e); Estate of Eddy v.
