A callable bond, also known as a redeemable bond, is a bond in which the issuer has the right to redeem prior to its maturity date, under certain conditions. When issued, the bond will explain when it can be redeemed and what the price will be. In most cases, the price will be slightly above the par value for the bond and will increase the earlier the bond is called. If interest rates drop enough, the investor may wind up with their principal returned and be faced with less attractive bond offerings.

On May 25, 2006, you purchase a $30,000 10-year callable bond paying 6.5% interest, which is a higher interest rate than similar noncallable bonds. The bond is callable after five years at a price of 103 (that is, 103% of the face value, or $30,900). The option instrument (line 1 of 2) is used to define the early bond buy-back schedule.
