What a 10-year term costs

On $940 at 6.50%, a 10-year term gives a payment of $10.67 and total interest of $341 over the life of the loan. Against the 5-year baseline the payment is $7.72 lower and the lifetime interest is $177 — the longer term costs that much extra.

Who a 10-year term suits

A longer term lowers the monthly commitment and raises the total cost. It makes sense when cash flow is the binding constraint, and it is worth checking how long you would owe more than the asset is worth.

Current yield ignores the capital gain

A bond bought at 940 and redeemed at 1,000 returns 60 dollars of capital on top of the coupons, and current yield misses it entirely. That is why a discount bond's yield to maturity always exceeds its current yield, and why the two figures diverge most on long-dated bonds trading far from par.

The formula

Current yield = annual coupon ÷ market price; approximate YTM adds the amortised discount

Every result on this page comes from this formula. Nothing is rounded until the final display, so figures match a spreadsheet to the cent.
