Answer:
1. Discharge by performance:
The contract comes to an end when both parties perform their contractual obligations
example : guy finds a bike on craigslist, they meet outside and the buyer pays the seller
2. Discharge by mutual consent :
example : guys buys a shirt from a store. later he doesnt like it anymore and returns it back to the store which is OK because it's the stores policy
3. Discharge of contract by impossibility of performance:
usually occurs when the contractual duty cannot be performed because of illness
4. Discharge by frustration:
example : where something like an outbreak of a war could void a contract
5. Discharge by Anticipatory (or repudiatory) breach :
guy doesn't do what he said he would do. he doesn't come through
examples: you've contracted to buy a house but then he sells it someone else
