15 Yield To Maturity
About this lesson
This video explores the concept of Yield to Maturity (YTM) for bonds. We learn that YTM is the universal discount rate needed to compare bonds with varying maturities and coupon rates, effectively representing the bond's internal rate of return. The tutorial demonstrates how to calculate YTM, showing that while it can be solved algebraically for short maturities, more complex calculations often require tools like Excel or online calculators. Understanding YTM provides a standardized way to assess the return on investment for different bonds. Subscribe to @AxiomTutoringCourses for more financial tutorials.
