Morrow offered to sell his clothing store to Now. The assets consisted of the building, merchandise, office equipment, and the rights under contracts with certain wholesalers to purchase new inventory at an agreed price. In consideration for receipt of the aforementioned assets, Now was to pay $500,000 up front and assume all business liabilities owed by Morrow. Now accepted the offer, and a written contract was signed by both parties.
