The following relationship between yield to maturity and coupon rate applies to determine price of bond | ||||||||||||
When coupon rate of bond is equal to yield to maturity, then bond price is at par (issued at par) | ||||||||||||
When coupon rate of bond is higher than yield to maturity, then bond price is at premium (issued above par value) | ||||||||||||
When coupon rate of bond is lower than yield to maturity, then bond price is at discount (issued at less than par value) | ||||||||||||

The price of bond gradually would increase to its par value as the maturity period reaches. | ||||||||||||
Thus, this means the yield to maturity is higher than the coupon rate (when bond is issued at discount) | ||||||||||||
