Answer:

a. 1.27%

b. 15.24%

c. 16.35%

Explanation:

a. What is the monthly return on this investment vehicle?

The formula for the value of a Perpetuity is;

Value = Payment/ rate

Rate = Payment/ Value

Rate = 1,450/114,000

= 0.0127

= 1.27%

b. What is the APR?

APR is the annual rate. The above figure is the monthly rate.

APR = Monthly rate * 12

= 1.27 * 12

= 15.24%

c. What is the effective annual return?

Effective annual return = [1 + (APR/n)]^n – 1

n is the number of compounding periods which is 12 here for monthly compounding.

= [1 + (15.24%/12)]^12– 1

= 16.35%

Answer:

Jun's pressure and influence has invalidated Mika's consent.

By threatening Mika with prosecution if she doesn't set a discount for the sale of her house on the grounds of her debt to her, she has influenced Jun's consent or rather coerced it and therefore Mika's consent is invalidated in the agreement.
