I'm a bit confused between A and B. I know general obligation bonds are secured by the issuer's credit, but I can't recall if that applies here.

This looks like a straightforward SQL question. I'll need to carefully review the table structure and the data to be inserted, then determine the appropriate SQL statements to use.
