To understand the basic philosophy behind the four factors of production
Land - Labor - Capital - Entrepreneurship
Lets consider an example:
Someday, just finishing your college, you think of starting a pizza business and you start selling pizza's one day. You might end up making a Pizza brand like Pizza Hut.
Here, in this example, to start your pizza shop, you need a place or area, this is known as Land factor. When you start making pizza, you need someone to work in that shop, (or if you doing it by yourself too) there should be at least some human being doing it, this factor is referred as Labor. To start the pizza shop, you need to buy the equipment, taking a shop on rent, or buying it, renovation of the shop etc. All of these things need, of course, Money, which is referred as Capital here. The idea you going to start this business, the courage to make it, definitely makes you an Entrepreneur, in utilizing all other factors effectively and efficiently. Therefore, this is linkage between these four factors of production, and how they fit together.

So, when market interest rates fall in general, this would lead to a rise in the price of bonds as general interest rates represent yield to maturity.
