2 [4] Gleim #: Source: Publisher, adapted Debentures are Income bonds that require interest payments only when earnings permit. Subordinated debt and rank behind convertible bonds. Bonds secured by the full faith and credit of the issuing firm. A form of lease financing similar to equipment trust certificates. [5] Gleim #: Source: Publisher, adapted Which one of the following characteristics distinguishes income bonds from other bonds? The bondholder is guaranteed an income over the life of the security. By promising a return to the bondholder, an income bond is junior to preferred and common stock. Income bonds are junior to subordinated debt but senior to preferred and common stock. Income bonds pay interest only if the issuing company has earned the interest. [6] Gleim #: Source: Publisher, adapted Serial bonds are attractive to investors because All bonds in the issue mature on the same date. The yield to maturity is the same for all bonds in the issue. Investors can choose the maturity that suits their financial needs. The coupon rate on these bonds is adjusted to the maturity date. [7] Gleim #: Source: Publisher, adapted The best advantage of a zero-coupon bond to the issuer is that the Bond requires a low issuance cost. Bond requires no interest income calculation to the holder or issuer until maturity. Interest can be amortized annually by the APR method and need not be shown as an interest expense to the issuer. Interest can be amortized annually on a straight-line basis but is a noncash outlay. [8] Gleim #: Source: CPA 0908 FIN-13 What type of bonds in a particular bond issuance will not all mature on the same date? Debenture bonds. Serial bonds. Term bonds. Sinking fund bonds.
