22) Indicate which 9 of the following 18 statements are false. Assume face values, coupon rates, and YTMs of bonds are positive, and that time-to-maturity is greater than 1 year.

If the price of bond A declined immediately after a change in YTM, then the change in YTM involved an increase in YTM.

If the yield to maturity of bond A declined by 1 percentage point today, then the price of bond A declined immediately after the YTM declined.

Bonds issued by Griffs Grills have a face value of $1,000 and pay annual coupons with the next coupon due in 1 year. If the price of the bond is less than $1,000, then the bonds coupon rate is less than its yield-to-maturity.

The value of bond A is greater than the value of bond B if 1) the information in the table provides information on each bond; 2) both TA and TB are greater than 0, but we do not know if TA is greater than, equal to, or less than TB; and 3) YB > CB > CA > YA > 0.

Bond	Coupon rate	Yield-to-maturity	Time-to-maturity	Face value	Next annual coupon
A	CA	YA	TA	$1,000	In 1 year
B	CB	YB	TB	$1,000	In 1 year

All of the following are parts of the bond contract: the coupon rate, face value, frequency of coupon payments, and maturity date.
