MRS. S. L. MCDOWELL, PETITIONER, v. COMMISSIONER OF INTERNAL REVENUE, RESPONDENT.
McDowell v. Commissioner
Docket Nos. 11271, 11272.
United States Board of Tax Appeals
15 B.T.A. 947 ; 1929 BTA LEXIS 2769 ;
March 18, 1929 , Promulgated
*2769 Harry C. Weeks, Esq., for the petitioners.
Shelby Faulkner, Esq., for the respondent.
GREEN
*947 OPINION.
GREEN: In these proceedings the petitioners seek a redetermination of their income-tax liabilities for the year 1920, for which the respondent has determined deficiencies as follows: S. L. McDowell $140.49
Mrs. S. L. McDowell 235.94
The sole issue is the determination of the petitioners' one-twentieth distributive share of the net income of the partnership of Norton & Cline for the year 1920. The respondent determined this to be $28,952.98 on the basis of a net income of the partnership of $579,059.60.
At the hearing, it was agreed and stipulated by and between the parties that all of the evidence introduced in the cases of Ella *948 Pipes Cline and W. D. Cline, Docket Nos. 6929 and 6930, with respect to the partnership of Norton & Cline, be considered as introduced in these proceedings and that the Board's determination of the net income of Norton & Cline for the year 1920 should govern here.
In the Cline cases, supra, we determined that the net income of the partnership of Norton & Cline *2770 for the year 1920 was $348,275.35. We now determine that the petitioners' one-twentieth distributive share of such net income is $17,413.77.
Judgment will be entered under Rule 50.
