The lower the callable price of a callable bond, the more valuable the call provision is to the firm (because they can repurchase at a lower price) therefore the yield to maturity will be higher
Yield to call is calculated by equating the price (found using n as number of periods until maturity) to the annuity of interest payments and callable face value for n= number of periods for callable period
The impact of different bond characteristicsIssue size: If you want to sell your bond you want to make sure there's someone there to buy it. Therefore liquidity is important. A company with many more investors is more attractive because it means it's more liquidCollateral: If collateral description is first mortgage it means that if the company defaults the bondholder can say they have to sell the asset to pay them back. If it is 'general debenture' it means if the company is bankrupt there's not much value to another piece of debt. First mortgage is more a more secure alternative of insuring debt.If there is a sinking fund say starting in 5 years it means that from year 5 the company will start to buy back parts of the bond. Usually with the sinking fund, the price paid is less of face value and current market price which is not attractive. it is similar to the bond being callable.

Therefore price changes will not be as drastic as a fixed coupon bond which will need to adjust it's price to compensate for changes in the market rate level
