Answer:

b) The company will incur a loss

Explanation:

The market rate at the time of issue = 9%, while coupon rate = 8%, it says bonds provide lesser return when compared to the market rate.  

At end of year 2 market rate drops to 6% which is lower than the Bond's coupon rate. Which means the bond's providing high return when compared to the market. So, company to retire the bonds need to pay more than the par value.

As company should retire these bonds more than par value, the company incur a loss.

Option 'B is correct

The company incur a loss
