A. accommodates portfolios that include callable bonds.

B. facilitates the evaluation of the effect of benchmark yield changes on portfolio value.

C. results in a theoretically correct but less commonly used measure of portfolio interest rate risk.

解析：选C。通常久期的计算是单个债券久期的加权平均值，题干中的做法不常用，但理论上正确。A项，为*现金流确定性，不能包括嵌入期权或FRN。B项，现金流收益率的变化可能与基准收益率不同，所以”有助于“的说法不正确。


Which ... relating to yield volatility is most accurate? If the term structure of yield volatility is downward sloping, then:

A. short-term rates are higher than long-term rates.

B. long-term yields are more stable than short-term yields.

解析：选B。题干设定收益率波动(yield volatility)的期限结构向下倾斜，因此短期收益率波动高于长期收益率波动，即长期收益率较为稳定。A项说的是 rates，C项说的是 price，和 yield 不能等同。
