Because of higher interest rates, zero coupon bonds are sold at a premium price above the face value that will be paid at maturity group of answer choices true false

False

Explanation:

So long as interest rates remain positive, zero coupon bonds will always be sold at a discount to the face value that will be paid at maturity. The price paid for zero coupon bonds will become lower the higher the interest rates. This relationship is enforced by the valuation formula for zero coupon bonds.

Where r = discount rate

and n = the tenor of the zero coupon bond

(Note that zero coupon bonds only make one repayment at maturity).

Thus, so long as interest rate is positive, the denominator on the right hand side will be greater than 1, and dividing by a number greater than 1 will result in an answer lower than the numerator.

Therefore, so long as interest rate is positive, the price of a zero coupon bond will be lower than the face value to be paid at maturity.

years agooo ahaha. but honestly they need to update ! : )

ans.

heterothermic organisms include those organisms that can switch between homeothermic (having body temperature higher than environment) and poikilothermic (having variation in internal body temperature) strategies.

some migratory birds show heterothermy as they decrease their metabolic rate during cold nights to keep their body temperature low. drop in metabolic rate allows increase in production efficiency of birds that reduces the internal body temperature to make it equal to external cold temperature during cold nights.

thus, the correct answer is 'birds allow their temperature drop in order to increase their production efficiency.'
