Answer:
corporations can obtain financing at lower rates
Explanation:
Convertible debts are a type of long term capital financing that has the option of converting the debt into stock or equity. Corporations issue convertible debts to balance equity and liabilities.
A convertible debt will usually have a lower interest because the holder of the debt has the option of converting it to stock. A conversion occurs after a certain period. Investors willingly opt for convertible debts as the conversion aspect makes them less risky. Companies will opt for them because they are less expensive in interest payments, hence a cheaper form of obtaining capital.
Answer:
An <u>increase</u> in the liquidity of corporate bonds will <u>increase</u> the price of corporate bonds and <u>decrease</u> the yield on corporate bonds, all else equal.
Explanation:
Bond liquidity refers to how quickly the bonds can be redeemed and converted to cash. This relates to the ease with which an investor can sell his bond.
High liquidity bonds are costly as they are more in demand and an attractive investment for the investors.
Thus, bond liquidity is directly related to it's price.
The yield of a bond refers to the market rate of return and represents the expectation of the bondholder with respect to rate of return.
A high price bond ( high liquidity) usually pays higher coupon rate of interest which is higher than the market rate of return on similar bonds i.e yield to maturity. This means price of a bond is inversely related to it's yield. Higher the bond price, higher the coupon payment, lower the bond yield.
Answer:
D. ceteris paribus condition
Explanation:
The Latin words “Ceteris paribus”, means “all other things remain the same”. It is an assumption usually included when by economists when stating laws or concepts such as demand and supply. Because, actually in the real word, it is feasible to eliminate other variables that might influence an outcome, aside the variables under study. So therefore, we assume all other variables remain constant, when stating the relationship between two variables. For example, when constructing a demand curve showing the relationship between price and quantity demanded, we assume that all other variables that can influence demand other than price, remain the same, which in reality might be difficult to isolate.
