One contract provided that Mr. Burke sold the North Main property to BEC for $250,000, consisting of BEC's assumption of the $5,294 debt and its cancellation of his $244,706 debt. The second contract provided that Mr. Burke sold the Walnut property to BEC for $675,000, consisting of its assumption of the $150,638 debt and its cancellation of his $524,362 debt. One day later, Mr. Burke deeded the properties to BEC, and BEC assumed $155,932 of debt and canceled Mr. Burke's debt of approximately $853,000 (instead of the total canceled debt of $769,068 shown in the contracts).
