Text: ¶ 26. The record reflects no other factors used to determine the chancellor's award. ¶ 27. Andy's share of the property totals $57,378 and Janis's share of the property totals $55,392. These amounts have been reduced by debts of the parties that are owing or have been paid since the separation. The lower court ordered Andy to pay $4,428 of Janis's health insurance premiums and $1,872 in car payments for Janis. While this award was not labeled alimony, we determine an alimony award based on the substance, not the label. Bowe v. Bowe, 557 So.2d 793, 795 (Miss. 1990). This award served the same purpose as rehabilitative alimony, and the distribution of property as a whole was equitable. This Court cannot further correct the disparity in income of the parties with an award of child support and alimony. Therefore, we find no error in the chancellor's award of alimony and no merit in these two issues.
