Yield usually refers to yield to maturity. If a bond is trading at par it usually means the yield to maturity is equal to the coupon.
A zero-coupon note is a note which pays at maturity the value of the note with no separate interest payments.
When the yield of a bond exceeds it coupon rate, the price will be below 'par' which is usually $100.
Not sure which two you're looking for so here are three: 1. You hold the bond to maturity 2. You get your principal and coupon payments when promissed 3. There's no change in the reinvestment rate 4. The bond has a fixed coupon with no prepayment options

Coupons, face amount, maturity value and maturity rate all are associated with bonds. Coupons are a type of bond and the face amount tells how much the coupon is worth until it matures, gaining interest.
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.
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.

Yes. At maturity you get the final coupon payment in addition to the return of principal.
1)bond issue 2)coupon payment 3)bond maturity
A zero-coupon note is a note which pays at maturity the value of the note with no separate interest payments.
Zero coupon bonds issued by the US Treasury are issued at a discount to face value. An investor holding zero coupon bonds is paid the full face value when the zero coupon bond matures. The difference between the purchase price and the maturity value is know as the original issue discount which represents the interest earned on the zero coupon bond. Although a zero coupon bond does not pay annual interest, an investor must pay taxes each year based on the imputed receipt of income. Since the investor is not receiving interest payments during the life of the bond, taxes would be paid on interest income not actually received until bond maturity. Due to the yearly tax liability on imputed interest, it makes sense for most investors to hold zero coupon bonds in a tax deferred retirement account. The interest earned on zero coupon bonds issued by the US Treasury are exempt from state and local taxes.
if a bond has finite maturity or limited maturity then we must consider not only the interest rate stream but also the maturity value (face value).regardsSajida Gul
U stupid coupon freak did u even got to collage stupid piece of crap
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.
