This document summarizes the key calculations and concepts for valuing a bond.
It shows the present value and cash flow calculations for a 5 year bond with a $100 face value and 10% annual coupon payments.
It then demonstrates how to calculate the bond's yield to maturity by changing the discount rate until the calculated price equals the face value, arriving at a yield of 7%.
Finally, it defines the concepts of premium, par, and discount prices relative to the face value and coupon rate, and introduces duration as a measure of how much a bond's price will change given a change in market yields.
