Bond Price Calculator

A bond is a fixed-income security — a loan from an investor to a borrower (government or corporation). The bond pays regular coupon payments and returns the face value at maturity. Bond prices move inversely to interest rates: when rates rise, bond prices fall.

💡

Tip: Duration measures a bond's sensitivity to interest rate changes. A bond with duration of 5 years will lose approximately 5% in price for every 1% rise in interest rates.

  1. 1Bond price = PV of all future cash flows discounted at YTM
  2. 2P = Σ[Coupon/(1+YTM)ᵗ] + Face Value/(1+YTM)ⁿ
  3. 3If YTM > coupon rate: bond trades at discount (price < face value)
  4. 4If YTM < coupon rate: bond trades at premium (price > face value)
$1,000 face, 5% coupon, YTM 6%, 10 years=Price = $926.40 (discount)Higher YTM → lower price
$1,000 face, 5% coupon, YTM 4%, 10 years=Price = $1,081.11 (premium)Lower YTM → higher price

Fun Fact

US Treasury bonds are considered the safest investment in the world because they are backed by the US government. The 10-year Treasury yield is the global benchmark for "the risk-free rate."
