【Answer to question 1】(C)

Option-free bonds have positive convexity. The higher the yield to maturity, the lower the duration (and thus the lower the interest rate risk).

【Answer to question 2】(B)

【analysis】

An FRN with a floor on the coupon rate prevents the coupon rate from falling below a prespecified minimum rate.
