单选题 A banker's acceptance that is priced at $99145 and matures in 72 days at $100000 has a (n):
  • A. money market yield greater than its discount yield.
  • B. discount yield greater than its bond equivalent yield.
  • C. money market yield greater than its bond equivalent yield.
【正确答案】 A
【答案解析】The money market yield is the holding period yield times 360/72 and is always greater than the discount yield which is the actual discount from face value times 360/72, since the holding period yield is always greater than the percentage discount from face value. A security's discount yield and its money market yield are always less than its bond equivalent yield, and its effective annual yield is always greater than its bond equivalent yield.
