Hi
The basic principle of the bond is that the price increases if there is a decrease in the Yield of the bond.
As observed from the chart,
Bond Price at 4% = $1,815.42
Bond Price at 2% = $2,308.11
If bonds were purchased at 4% i.e. $1,815.42 and sold when the interest rate was 2% i.e $2,308.11, return on investment on sale of bond will be
Return = $2,308.11 - $1,815.42 = $492.69
Return on investment = $492.69 / $1,815.42 = 27.14%
