Which statement regarding callable bonds is true?

Two bonds have the same maturity and the same coupon rate. However, one is callable and the other is not. The difference in prices between the bonds will be smaller if the current market interest rate is below the coupon rate than if it is above the coupon rate.


Corporate treasurers like issuing callable bonds because the company could sell a new issue of high-yielding securities if and when interest rates increase.


Two bonds have the same maturity and the same coupon rate. However, one is callable and the other is not. The difference in prices between the bonds will be smaller if the current market interest rate is above the coupon rate than if it is below the coupon rate.


The actual life of a callable bond will always be equal to or less than the actual life of a noncallable bond with the same maturity. Therefore, if the yield curve is upward sloping, the required rate of return will be lower on the callable bond.
