Answer 1

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

A bond’s (face value) is generally $1,000 and represents the amount borrowed from the bond’s first purchaser.

A bond issuer is said to be in (default) if it does not pay the interest or the principal in accordance with the terms of the indenture agreement or if it violates one or more of the issue’s restrictive covenants.

A bond contract feature that requires the issuer to retire a specified portion of the bond issue each year is called a (sinking fund provision).

A bond’s (call provision) gives the issuer the right to call, or redeem, a bond at specific times and under specific conditions.

The face value is the dollar value of a security, or a stock's original cost. Default means when the bond issuer doesn't agree with the stated terms of the bond.
