1. Advertised yield is the annualized yield to maturity of all 10 bonds in the Bond Account. The first bond in that set matures in four years; at that point, the avg yield to maturity of the remaining bonds will change. Note that you may not actually receive this yield if you sell the bonds prior to maturity, or if the bond issuer defaults or calls the bond.
2. Payments are anticipated, but all bond transactions are subject to risk of missed payments or default.
