Answer :A

Example on murabaha:
Muhammad and his family would like to purchase a condo which costs $240,000.
To do so, Muhammad would work with Devon Islamic to purchase the condo.
Devon Islamic would purchase the condo for Muhammad from the seller for
$240,0000 and sell it to Muhammad for $286,000 to be paid in monthly
installments over a 15-year period. The scheduled monthly payment not including
insurance and taxes would be $1,586.21. The $286,000 that Muhammad would pay
for his condo would be a fixed amount to Devon Islamic which owns the home
now. The extra amount Muhammad pays along with the cost of the condo listed by
the seller is a 2.375%(APR)* profit rate which is not interest as it is offered as a
fixed payment without any additional costs, hence making this transaction Shariah
compliant. While late charges may be applicable but contract balance is not
compounded.

*Rates are subject to change & financing subject to approval. Payments do not
include amount for taxes and insurance premiums.

*APR = Annual Percentage Rate
