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.

What happen when the yield to maturity on a bond is greater than the coupon rate?
When the yield of a bond exceeds it coupon rate, the price will be below 'par' which is usually $100.
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.
What happens when a bond YTM is less than it's coupon rate?
When a bond's yield to maturity (YTM) is less than its coupon rate, the bond is trading at a premium. This means that investors are willing to pay more than the bond's face value because the coupon payments are more attractive compared to current market interest rates. As a result, the bondholder receives higher periodic interest payments than what is available in the market, making the bond more valuable. Over time, the bond's price will decrease as it approaches maturity, aligning its yield with the prevailing market rates.
If you have a 10 percent coupon bond with 19 years left to maturity the bonds make annual payments and currently sells for 1102.05 what is the YTM?
A bond that pays 1 coupon(s) of 10% per year, that has a market value of $1,102.05, and that matures in 19 years will have a yield to maturity of 8.87%. What does it mean? Well, bond investors don't just buy only newly issued bonds (on the primary market) but can also buy previously issued bonds from other investors (on the secondary market). Depending on whether a bond on the secondary market is bought at a discount or premium, the actual rate of return can be greater or lower than the quoted annual coupon rate. This is why bond investors need to look at YTM, which measures the bond's yield from the day the investor buys it to the day it expires, when the principal is paid to the bondholder.

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.
If a coupon bond is selling at par does the current yield equal its yield to maturity?
