In this video I will teach you what Yield to Maturity is (YTM). I will show you how you can calculate YTM for premium bonds, discount bonds and for bonds bought at issue. This video will focus on how to use the approximation formula but will also mention at the end how to use the trial and error method. This video will include clear explanations (I've tried to make it as easy to follow as possible) and fully worked examples with step by step solutions. Hopefully this tutorial helps you and you can easily and quickly find the YTM of a bond.
