The appeals are against income tax assessments for the year 1975 in which the Minister of National Revenue provided the following information in making changes:

Your capital loss has been reduced by $81.20.
Your interest income has been reduced by $1,062.77.
Your carrying charges have been reduced by $1,054.13.
Your interest and dividend income deduction has been reduced by $980.79 as there was no bona fide acquisition or disposition of the bonds.

Your carrying charges have been reduced by $1,028.21.
