Bond Pricing and Yield Concepts

This video tutorial explains how to calculate the current price of a bond. It covers the bond's face value, annual coupon interest rate, and yield to maturity. The tutorial demonstrates calculating the annual coupon interest and setting up the formula to discount future interest payments and the bond's face value. The final bond price is calculated by summing these discounted values, resulting in a current price of $940.89.
