Chapter 12, Problem 12.2Q
When market rates of interest rise after a fixed-rate security is purchased, the value of the now-below-market, fixed-interest payments declines, so the market value of the investment falls. On the other hand, if market rates of interest fall after a fixed-rate security is purchased, the fixed-interest payments become relatively attractive, and the market value of the investment rises. Assuming these price changes are not viewed as giving rise to an other than- temporary impairment, how are they reflected in the investment account for a security classified as held-to-maturity?

When market rates of interest rise after a fixed-rate security is purchased, the value of the now-below-market, fixed-interest payments declines, so the market value of the investment falls. How would that drop in fair value be reflected in the investment account for a security classified as HTM? Would your answer change if the drop in fair value was due to worsened financial conditions at the investee?
In general, would a falling rate of market interest cause the price of an MPT security to increase or decrease? Would the increase or decrease be greater if the security was issued at a discount? Would an increase in prepayment be likely or unlikely? Describe with an example.
