Which of the following explains why mortgage bonds have lower required interest rates than debentures?

Debentures pay higher coupon payments given their relative higher risk profile since they are debts for which a corporation pledges a particular asset that may be claimed by the secured debtholder in the event of default.


Mortgage bonds are secured by property, but debentures are unsecured bonds.


Mortgage bonds have greater potential of loss due to a lack of collateral and thus offer lower coupon payments.


Debentures pay higher coupon payments given their relative higher risk profile since they provide a lien against specific property as security for the obligation.
