Yield to maturity is similar to current yield, but it also takes into account any gain or loss of principal at maturity. For example, if a $1,000 par bond was bought at a discount of $900, at maturity there would be a $100 gain. Likewise, if a $1,000 par bond is purchased for $1090, there will be a $90 loss in principal at maturity. Yield to maturity is a precise measure that allows you to compare bonds with different maturities that sell for more or less than par. The trouble is, it is a complex calculation that isn't printed in the paper, so you'll have to get it from your broker or bond dealer.
The rate of return an investor earns assuming a bond is held to maturity.
The effective annual rate of return earned by a bond if held to maturity. This rate takes into account the amount paid for the bond, the length of time to maturity, and assumes coupon payments can be reinvested at the yield to maturity. !-- End Index--DL

Used to determine the rate of return an investor would receive if a long-term, interest-bearing investment, such as a bond, is held to its maturity date. It takes into account purchase price, redemption value, time to maturity, coupon yield, and the time between interest payments.
The rate of return earned on an investment (such as a bond) bought at a specific price and held until maturity. The yield to maturity equals all the interest you receive from the time you purchase the bond until maturity (including interest on interest at the original purchasing yield) plus any gain (if you purchased the bond below its face, or par value) or loss (if you purchased it above its face value). The tax payable on the interest and the capital repayments is ignored.
The rate of return yield by a bond held to maturity when both compound interest payments and the investor's capital gain or loss on the security are taken into account.
The return of an interest-bearing investment, usually applied to a bond. Yield to maturity measures the rate of return of the bond if held to maturity, considering purchase price, redemption value, time to maturity, coupon yield and the time between interest payments.
Similar to current yield, yield to maturity also takes into account any gain or loss of principal at maturity. Yield to maturity allows comparison of bonds with different maturities selling for more or less than par.
Is the rate of return which is measured by the current expected income stream relative to the prevailing market price assuming that the asset is held until maturity. If the instrument is trading at a discount, then the yield to maturity will be greater than the coupon rate. If the instrument is trading at a premium, then the yield to maturity will be less than the coupon rate.
The rate of return an investor would receive if the securities held by a portfolio were held to their maturity dates.
The rate of return anticipated on a bond if it is held until the maturity date.
A standard measure of a bond's expected average annual rate of return. Yield to maturity simplifies the comparison of different investment choices by converting a bond's price, redemption value, time to maturity, coupon rate and frequency of payments into a single measure. One assumption in the calculation is that all cash flows are reinvested at the same rate of interest. Other factors that must be evaluated before including a particular bond in a portfolio include the bond's credit quality, tax status, maturity date, call date and current yield.

The interest rate that will make the present value of a bond's remaining cash flows (if held to maturity) equal to the price (plus accrued interest, if any).
The yield on a bond, taking into account the interest rate, purchase price in relation to par value and number of years left to maturity. For example, if an investor purchases a $1,000 bond for $800, the $200 profit ($1,000 - $800) the owner will receive at maturity will be added to the interest earned when calculating yield to maturity.
A yield based on the assumption that the security remains outstanding to maturity. It represents the total of coupon payments until maturity, plus interest on interest, and whatever gain or loss is realized from the security at maturity.
The yield of a bond were it held to maturity, including purchase price, coupon rate and present value.
The internal rate of return on an investment. Typically takes into account all investment returns and their timing.
The calculation of an average rate of return on a bond (with a maturity over one year) if it is held to its maturity date and if all cash flows are reinvested at the same rate of interest.

Yield to maturity is the calculated return on investment that an investor will get if they hold the bond to maturity. It takes into account the present value of all future cash flows, as well as any premium or discount to par that the investor pays.
A yield concept designed to give the investor the average annual yield on a security. It is based on the assumption that the security is held to maturity and that all interest received over the life of the security can be reinvested at the yield to maturity.
The average annual yield of a fully amortized loan, that is held by an investor for the life of the loan. The average rate takes into the account the fact that the outstanding principal, and consequently the amount of interest, declines each year until the loan is fully paid. When the term is used in reference to a bond or other security, it means the average annual rate of return of the security when held to maturity, taking into account discounts or premiums paid when the security is purchased and capital gains or losses. Zero-Percent Financing A loan that requires not interest payments; in the U.S., the Internal Revenue Service assigns 10 percent for the borrower and for the lender.
The annual rate of return an investor would receive if a bond were held until maturity.
The percentage rate of return paid on a bond, note, or other fixed income security if the investor buys and holds it to its maturity date. The calculation for YTM is based on the coupon rate, length of time to maturity, and market price. It assumes that coupon interest paid over the life of the bond will be reinvested at the same rate.
The compound rate of return that investors will receive for a bond with a maturity greater than one year if they hold the bond to maturity and reinvest all cash flows at the same rate of interest. It also takes into account purchase price, redemption value, coupon yield, and the time between interest payments. The YTM will be greater than the current yield when the bond is selling at a discount and will be less if it is selling at a premium. YTM can be approximated using a bond yield table or can be determined using a programmable calculator equipped for bond calculations. YTM is used extensively in comparing fixed income investments, making fixed income portfolio decisions, and in financial planning. See: Yield To Average Life; Yield To Call

Yield to maturity (YTM) is the internal rate of return on cash flows of a fixed income security, often a bond, if the security were to be held until maturity. It is a measurement of the return of the bond. This technique in theory allows investors to calculate the fair value of different financial instruments.
