- Bond B has a 9% annual coupon, matures in 12 years, and has a $1000 face value.
- Bond C has an 11% annual coupon, matures in 12 years, and has a $1000 face value.
Each bond has a yield to maturity (YTM) of 9%

Callaghan Motors' bonds have 10 years remaining to maturity. Interest is paid annually; they have a $1,000 par value; the coupon interest rate is 8 percent; and the yield to maturity is 9 percent. What is the bond's current market price?
Given the current market rate of 9.000% for a similar bond, a bond with a face value of $1,000.00 and paying a coupon rate of 8.000% (compounding Annually), should be selling for $935.82 (selling at a discount).
The present value of interest payments is calculated using the formula for present value of an annuity and the present value of the face value (also called the maturity value) is calculated using the formula for present value of a single sum occurring in future.
If r is the interest rate prevailing in the market, c is the coupon rate on the bond, t is the time periods occurring over the term of the bond and F is the face value of the bond, the present value of interest payments is calculated using the following formula:
