Boot is the difference between the value of two assets exchanged in a
non-cash transaction.  Boot is the cash paid to equalize the exchange.

Thus, if you want to trade me your boat (worth $15,000) for my car
(worth $20,000), we would make the trade and then make up the
difference between the values of the assets by you paying me $5,000
boot.  That makes the trade fair---$20,000 value from you (boat +
boot) and $20,000 from me (car).
