When U.S. bond traders refer to "the yield curve," they are often referring to the coupon-paying Treasury yield curve.
 3 -Which of the following statements is false?
-We can use the law of one price to compute the price of a coupon bond from the prices of zero-coupon bonds.
-The plot of the yields of coupon bonds of different maturities is called the coupon-paying yield curve.
