What is a Zero coupon bond?
A zero-coupon bond is a bond bought at a price lower than its face value, with the face value repaid at the time of maturity. It does not make periodic interest payments, or have so-called "coupons," hence the term zero-coupon bond.
Does the yield to maturity on a premium bond exceed the bond's coupon rate?
No, the yield to maturity (YTM) on a premium bond does not exceed the bond's coupon rate. A premium bond is sold for more than its face value, which means the YTM will be lower than the coupon rate because the investor will receive the fixed coupon payments but will incur a loss when the bond matures and is redeemed at face value. Thus, the YTM reflects this lower return compared to the coupon rate.

Difference between coupon rate and yield to maturity?
The coupon rate is the actually stated interest rate. This is the rate earned on a NEW issue bond. The yield to maturity takes into consideration the purchase price of a bond bought in the secondary market. For example, if you buy a $1,000 bond for $1100 which matures in 10 years and has a coupon of 5%, your coupon is 5%, but your yield to maturity would be closer to 4% because you paid $1100, but will only get back $1,000 at maturity (losing $100). The "loss" reduces the return.
Explain the relationship between coupon rate and the yield to maturity?
The coupon rate is the fixed annual interest payment a bondholder receives based on the bond's face value, while the yield to maturity (YTM) represents the total return anticipated on a bond if held until its maturity, factoring in the bond's current market price, coupon payments, and time to maturity. When a bond's market price is below its face value, the YTM is higher than the coupon rate, indicating a better return for investors. Conversely, if the bond's market price is above its face value, the YTM is lower than the coupon rate. Therefore, the relationship between the two is inversely related to the bond's market price.
If a bond's yield to maturity exceeds its coupon rate does the bond's current yield must also exceed its coupon rate?
No......The price of the bonds will be less than par or 1,000.....
Bond face value-$100, time to maturity - 5 years, coupon rate 5% redeemed at face value, what will be the ytm?
The yield to maturity will be 5% since both Face Value and Redemption value are same. If you purchase the bond for 95 or 105 your yield to maturity will change than what the coupon rate is.
