Final Answer :
A
Explanation :
Yield to Maturity (YTM) is not included in a bond indenture because it is a market-driven rate that changes over time, reflecting the current market conditions and the bond's price in the market. The bond indenture typically includes fixed terms of the bond such as the maturity date, sinking fund provisions, protective covenants, and details about any security or collateral backing the bond.
