The Question OF Income.


The question OF determining the rela-
tlonship between the market value Of
bond and its income return is largely
academic. Generally speaking. the mar
ket value depends upon the maturity
date, the physical condition OF the prop
erty upon which II may be a mortgage.
the credit and financial standing OF the
