AAgreement reduced to a deed
BMutual consideration in writing

Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. Meeting of minds — parties agreed upon the same subject in the same sense
1. Per OCR: "Unless there is consensus ad idem, there cannot be any contract." 2. Both parties must understand the same subject identically. 3. Without it, the agreement fails for lack of consent. _Source: ICMAI BoS CMA Foundation Paper 1 (FBLC) — Paper1_07042026.pdf, Module 2 §2.1 (page 51)_
