Bonds
Terminology
Bond - Security that obligates the issuer to make specified payments to the bondholder
Face Value (Par Value or Principal Value) - Payment at the maturity of the bond
Coupon - The interest payments made to the bondholder
Coupon Rate - Annual interest payment, as a percentage of face value
6- ‹#›

Bonds
WARNING
The coupon rate IS NOT the discount rate used in the Present Value calculations
The coupon rate merely tells us what cash flow the bond will produce
Since the coupon rate is listed as a %, this misconception is quite common
6- ‹#›

Bond Pricing
The price of a bond is the present value of all cash flows generated by the bond (i.e. coupons and face value) discounted at the required rate of return
cpn is commonly used as an abbreviation for coupon

Notice how the keys map with the bond terminology
* These keys MUST reference the same time period (i.e. annual, semi-annual, quarterly, monthly, etc. )

Q: How did the calculation change, given semi-annual coupons versus annual coupon payments?
Time Periods
Paying coupons twice a year, instead of once doubles the total number of cash flows to be discounted in the PV formula.
Discount Rate
Since the time periods are now half years, the discount rate is also changed from the annual rate to the half year rate.

Calculating Yield to Maturity (YTM = r)
If you are given the price of a bond (PV) and the coupon rate, the yield to maturity can be found by solving for r

Example
What is the YTM of a 10.0% annual coupon bond, with a $1,000 face value, which matures in 3 years? The market price of the bond is $1,136.16.

Treasury strips are bonds that make a single payment. The yields on Treasury strips in May 2013 show that investors received a higher yield on longer term bonds.
