1Opinion of the Court

TANG, Circuit Judge:

Herman M. Greenspun received a loan at a three percent interest rate when the prevailing market rate was six percent. The Commissioner of Internal Revenue (Commissioner) determined deficiencies in Green-spun’s 1967 and 1969 federal income taxes on the theory that Greenspun had realized gross income in an amount equal to the economic value between the market rate of interest and the actual interest rate on his loan. The Tax Court found in favor of Greenspun, 72 T.C. 931 (1979). We affirm.
