Description
LPL4801 Assignment 1 Semester 2 Memo | Due 29 August 2025. All questions fully answered. Patricia concludes a written agreement for the purchase of a free standing Jacuzzi from Luxury Pools
(Pty) Ltd on 1 June at her home. The purchase price of the Jacuzzi is R52,000 which is payable in
twelve equal monthly instalments. The agreement also makes provision for Patricia to pay interest at
18% per annum to Luxury Pools (Pty) Ltd in respect of the deferred purchase price and that ownership
of the Jacuzzi shall be retained by Luxury Pools (Pty) Ltd until Patricia satisfies all her financial
obligations under the agreement. At the time of conclusion of the contract the repo rate is 7% and the
prime rate is 10.5%. The Jacuzzi is delivered to Patricia on 2 June. Patricia approaches you for legal
advice on 10 June. She explains that although she can afford the Jacuzzi she has changed her mind and
no longer wishes to continue with the agreement. She also informs you that she paid the first
instalment on 2 June and would like to claim back this instalment. It appears that Luxury Pools (Pty)
Ltd did not do a proper credit assessment prior to the conclusion of the agreement.
A) Advise Patricia on whether the National Credit Act (“the NCA”) is applicable to the
agreement.
