Bond Amount Estimator

Estimate the fair present value of a bond given its coupon rate, market yield, face value, and years to maturity.

Face Value ($)

Annual Coupon Rate (%)

Market Yield / Required Rate (%)

Years to Maturity

Coupon Frequency

Annual Semi-Annual Quarterly Monthly

#### Formula

Bond Price = (C / r) × [1 − (1 + r)−n] + F × (1 + r)−n

Where:

The first term is the present value of the annuity of coupon payments; the second term is the present value of the face value repaid at maturity. When the coupon rate equals the market yield, the bond prices at par (face value). When the coupon rate is below the market yield, the bond trades at a discount; above, at a premium.
