| Years to Maturity | Yield to Maturity | Current Price |
| 2 | 4% | ₹ 933.95 |
| 2 | 6% | ₹ 900.00 |
| 3 | 6% | ₹ 900.00 |
| 5 | 4% | ₹ 980.13 |
| 5 | 8% | ₹ 828.13 |
Formula,
=PV(4%,2,54,900,0) =$933.95
=PV(6%,2,54,900,0) =$900
= PV(6%,3,54,900,0) =$900
= PV(4%,5,54,900,0) = $980.13
= PV(8%,5,54,900,0) = $828.13
When the yield to maturity is greater than the coupon rate, thebond’s current price is below its face value.
For a given maturity, the bond’s current price falls as the yield to maturity rises
