What care, if any, should be taken regarding the sign of the cash flows while drawing the timeline and associated cash flows of a coupon bond?

What will be an ideal response?


Answer: A typical coupon bond will have the first cash flow in the opposite direction as compared to all the rest of the cash flows over its life. The first cash corresponds to the issuer borrowing the money, while all the rest of the cash flows are payments by the issuer to the bondholder either in the form of interest or principal.
