| todolist | if expected rate of return is unchanged, nothing will change with the bond |
| dah62 | None of the variables will change but the price will unless everything balances as is the case with selling at par.... |
| jpducros | Why not B ? Hasn't a convertible option value an inverse relationship with time to maturity ? |
| johntan1979 | Convertible = benefit investor = selling price higher (premium) Price will fall until par |
| Kevdharr | Price of a bond gradually moves closer to par as maturity approaches. If a bond is already selling at par, it will remain at par all other things held constant. |
| farhan92 | "pull to par" |
