How is a current yield on a corporate bond calculated?
The current yield on a corporate bond is calculated by taking the bond's annual coupon payment and dividing it by the bond's current market price.

This calculation provides an indication of the income generated by the bond relative to its market value, reflecting the yield an investor would receive if they purchased the bond at its current price.
Why is the yield to maturity (YTM) of a discount bond greater than the bond's current yield?

The current yield only considers the annual interest payments relative to the bond's current price, without factoring in the potential gain from the bond reaching its full face value at maturity.
