-362- Respondent determined the Kanters failed to maintain or provide adequate books and records with respect to their taxable income for 1982. Respondent further determined Kanter had in excess of $2 million in unreported income for 1982, which unreported income determination was based upon respondent’s analysis of deposits to Kanter’s three American National Bank accounts. The deposit slips from which respondent reconstructed Kanter’s 1982 taxable income did not specify the taxable or nontaxable nature of the deposits.144 At trial, Kanter offered into evidence his check register and a series of spreadsheets and a summary analysis of his bank deposits prepared by Gallenberger. Exhs. 9168-9172. Respondent conceded a portion of the subject adjustment, but maintains Kanter failed to report $1,303,207 of income for 1982 based on the bank deposits from the payors or sources in the amounts listed below: 144 The record does not disclose whether the Kanters provided the check register to the revenue agent who examined their 1982 return. Apparently the revenue agent had been unsuccessful in obtaining a number of documents requested from the Kanters, as the agent attempted to reconstruct Kanter’s 1982 taxable income based upon an analysis of Kanter’s bank account deposits. To obtain copies of the bank account statements and other account information, the agent issued a third-party administrative summons to the bank.Page: Previous 352 353 354 355 356 357 358 359 360 361 362 363 364 365 366 367 368 369 370 371 Next
