          1986 amended return or its attachments.  However, a disclosure              
          need not do so if, as here, it clearly puts the Commissioner on             
          notice of the possible controversy.  See Schirmer v.                        
          Commissioner, 89 T.C. 277, 285-286 (1987); Mitchell v.                      
          Commissioner, T.C. Memo. 1994-237, affd. 73 F.3d 628 (6th Cir.              
          1996).                                                                      
               We conclude that petitioner is not liable for the addition             
          to tax under section 6661(a) for 1988 and for the accuracy-                 
          related penalty under section 6662(a) and (b)(2) for 1989 for               
          substantial understatement of tax.                                          
                                                       Decisions will be              
                                                  entered under Rule 155.
