Summary Introduction

Current price of the bond:

Price of the bond is the present value of the future cash flows received from the bond.

Current yield: It is the ratio of the coupon payment to current price of the bond. It is used to measure the current rate of return earned by the investor from the bonds.

Capital gain: Capital gain is the difference between the yield to maturity and current yield.

Calculate the current price of the bond as follows:

Current price=Coupon ×(1(1+Rate)Periods)Rate+Face value(1+Rate)Periods

Calculate the current yield as follows:

Current yield=CouponCurrent price

Calculate the capital gain yield as follows:

Capital gain yield=Yield to maturityCurrent yield
