Question

Federal obligations usually issued for maturities in excess of five years are called: _______

a.Treasury bonds
b.Treasury notes
c.Treasury bills
d. Agency issues
e. none of the above

Answer 1

Answer: b. Treasury Notes

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is a bit confusing to answer unless a mistake has been made in it.

Treasury Notes are Federal obligations that mature between 2 - 10 years so would be the correct answer for this question as this would include bonds in excess of five years till the 10th year.

Treasury Bonds on the other hand mature after 10 years.

If there is a mistake in the question and you instead meant to write 10 years instead of 5, the answer would be Treasury Bonds.

If not, the answer is Treasury Notes.
