The present value of the face value (i.e. the maturity value) is calculated as follows: Therefore, the price of a bond is given by the following formula: Example 1: Bond with annual coupon payments. Company A has issued a bond having face value of $100,000 carrying annual coupon rate of 8% and maturing in 10 years. The market interest rate is 10%. The price of the bond is calculated as the present value of all future cash flows: Example 2: Bond with semiannual coupon payments. Company S has issued a bond having face value of $100,000 carrying coupon rate of 9% to be paid semiannually and maturing in 10 years.
Using Yield on Price, the Current Yield for a bond is calculated as follows: Alternately, the following calculation can be used: For example, consider the calculation for current yield on 8/15/2011 for a bond with the following characteristics: par value = $100. coupon rate = 5.00%. price = 95% of par value.
