                                        - 8 -                                         
          $39,193 of the $43,735 in deductions claimed on Schedule C for              
          that year.  The amounts that respondent did not disallow were               
          allowed as Schedule A, Itemized Deductions.                                 
               On the 1999 return, petitioners reported capital gain income           
          of $8,853; however, no Schedule D, Capital Gains and Losses,                
          accompanied the return.  Respondent determined that petitioners             
          realized $30,270 in capital gains; however, at trial, the parties           
          settled this issue with petitioners’ conceding capital gains of             
          $21,417 for 1999.                                                           
               For the 2 years at issue, petitioners claimed Schedule A               
          deductions of $28,331 for 1999 and $36,950 for 2000.  Respondent            
          disallowed $9,253 and $13,435 of these deductions, respectively,            
          for 1999 and 2000.  Some of the adjustments were computational,             
          based on other adjustments, and others were disallowed for lack             
          of substantiation.  Still other adjustments, as noted earlier,              
          included allowance of some of the amounts disallowed as Schedule            
          C deductions.  Finally, miscellaneous itemized deductions of                
          $16,310 on the 2000 return were reduced to $12,581 for lack of              
          substantiation.                                                             
               On Schedule C for petitioners’ 1999 and 2000 tax years,                
          respondent determined that a considerable portion of the claimed

          of $8,853.  In the notice of deficiency, respondent determined              
          the capital gains income was $30,270.  At trial, the parties                
          settled that issue for the amount of $21,417.
