When the yield of a bond exceeds it coupon rate, the price will be below 'par' which is usually $100.
Difference enters bond's coupon interest rate the current yield y bondholder's required rate of return?
The interest rate paid on a bond is known as the coupon rate. A $1,000 fixed rate bond with a 5% coupon rate purchased at par would yield $50 annually in interest payments.
When the coupon rate (the contractual periodical "interest" payments) are lower than the yield (the market required return) the bond will be in discount. This discount makes up for the low value of the coupons.
The rate of return anticipated on a bond if held until the end of its lifetime. YTM is considered a long-term bond yield expressed as an annual rate. The YTM calculation takes into account the bond's current market price, par value, coupon interest rate and time to maturity. It is also assumed that all coupon payments are reinvested at the same rate as the bond's current yield. YTM is a complex but accurate calculation of a bond's return that helps investors compare bonds with different maturities and coupons.

Bond Pricing. A 6 year circular file bond pays interest of $80 annually, and sells for $950. What are its coupon rate, Current yield, and yield maturity?
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.
