|15. |Companies HD and LD have the same sales, tax rate, interest |

| |rate on their debt, total assets, and basic earning power. |

| |Both companies have positive net incomes. Company HD has a |

| |a. |If two bonds have the same maturity, the |

| | |same yield to maturity, and the same level|

| | |of risk, the bonds should sell for the |

| | |same price regardless of the bond’s coupon|

| | |rates. |

| |b. |All else equal, an increase in interest |

| | |rates will have a greater effect on the |

| | |prices of short-term than long-term bonds.|

| |c. |All else equal, an increase in interest |

| | |rates will have a greater effect on |

| | |higher-coupon bonds than it will have on |

| | |lower-coupon bonds. |

| |d. |If a bond’s yield to maturity exceeds its |

| | |coupon rate, the bond’s price must be less|

| | |than its maturity value. |

| |e. |If a bond’s yield to maturity exceeds its |

| | |coupon rate, the bond’s current yield must|

| | |be less than its coupon rate. |

| |a. |A 20-year zero coupon bond has more |

| | |reinvestment rate risk than a 20-year |

| | |coupon bond. |

| |b. |For any given maturity, a 1.0 percentage |

| | |point decrease in the market interest rate|

| | |would cause a smaller dollar capital gain |

| | |than the capital loss stemming from a 1.0 |

| | |percentage point increase in the interest |

| | |rate. |

| |c. |From a corporate borrower’s point of view,|

| | |interest paid on bonds is not |

| | |tax-deductible. |

| |d. |Price sensitivity as measured by the |

| | |percentage change in price due to a given |

| | |change in the required rate of return |

| | |decreases as a bond’s maturity increases. |

| |e. |For a bond of any maturity, a 1.0 |

| | |percentage point increase in the market |

| | |interest rate (rd) causes a larger dollar |

| | |capital loss than the capital gain |

| | |stemming from a 1.0 percentage point |

| | |decrease in the interest rate. |

All are incorrect.

| |a. |If inflation is expected to increase in |

| | |the future, and if the maturity risk |

| | |premium (MRP) is greater than zero, then |

| | |the yield curve will have an upward slope.|

| |b. |If the maturity risk premium (MRP) is |

| | |greater than zero, then the yield curve |

| | |must have an upward slope. |

| |c. |Because long-term bonds are riskier than |

| | |short-term bonds, yields on long-term |

| | |Treasury bonds will always be higher than |

| | |yields on short-term T-bonds. |

| |d. |If the maturity risk premium (MRP) equals |

| | |zero, the yield curve must be flat. |

| |e. |The yield curve can never be downward |

| | |sloping. |
