Answer:
What is entirely true about this contract is:
The contract is a VALID contract but is also a VOIDABLE contract on the part of Larry but NOT on the part of Sprint.
Explanation:
As a minor, Larry (he was under the age of 18 when he signed the contract with Sprint) lacks the contractual capacity to enter into the contractual relationship with Sprint. But since he has signed the contract in exchange for the purchase of the cell phone, Larry can either honor the deal or void the contract. This is why the contract is said to be valid but voidable at Larry's behest. However, after Larry has turned 18, if he has not done anything to void the contract, then the contract with Sprint can no longer be voided.

Account Debit Credit
Land $105,000

Answer:
A) interest rate
Explanation:
Interest rate risk refers to the risk of purchasing a bond that offers a certain coupon and then the price of that bond changes due to changes in the market interest rate.
This can work in your favor, if the market interest rate decreases, you will have a bond that pays above market coupon, which will increase the market value of the bond. But if the market interest rate increases, the market value of your bond will decrease, and you will lose money. This is what happened to Albert, since the market interest rate increased, the value of Albert's bond decreased.
