How would you compute a bond’s capital gains yield, if you were given its yield to maturity, coupon rate, and current yield?
Capital Gains Yield for the Bond can be calculated by using the
formula:
CGY = (current yield – yield to maturity) / yield to maturity x
100
or,
CGY = (P1 - P0) / P0
where,
CGY is Bond Capital Gains Yield,
P0 is Current Bond Yield,
P1 is Yield to Maturity of the Bond.
Alternatively, Capital Gains Yield may be calculate as:
= P1/P0 - 1,
0r, ΔP/P0
where, 'ΔP' is the change in Bond price divided by the current Bond
