NOTES

Serial bonds

Serial bonds are those which have a series of maturity


dates or those bonds which are payable in installments.

For example, a P 1,000,000 bond issued on January 1, 2020


may provide that the bond will mature as follows:
December 31, 2020 200,000
December 31, 2021 200,000
December 31, 2022 200,000
December 31, 2023 200,000
December 31, 2024 200,000
Term bonds
Term bonds are those bonds that mature on a
single date.

Callable and convertible bonds can be classified as


term bonds despite their special features.
