What it does

Quickly estimate a bond’s yield to maturity (YTM) from price, coupon, and maturity. Great for checking if a bond fits your income and risk target.

Inputs

  • Face Value (Par): e.g., ₦100,000

  • Coupon Rate: annual rate (e.g., 12%)

  • Coupon Frequency: annual / semi-annual / quarterly

  • Price (Dirty): includes accrued interest

  • Settlement Date: when you buy

  • Maturity Date: when principal is repaid

Outputs

  • YTM (annualized): total return if held to maturity

  • Current Yield: coupon ÷ price

  • Accrued Interest and Clean Price (Price − Accrued)

Notes

  • Dirty vs Clean: Brokers often quote clean; you pay dirty (clean + accrued).

  • YTM vs Current Yield: YTM includes coupons and price gain/loss to par; current yield is coupon-only.
