What is the return on bonds?

The return on bonds is the profit gained from the purchase of the bonds.  

The profit includes all the capital gains (discount received) and interest revenues received until maturity.

Data ad Calculations:

Face value = $1,000

Purchase price = $950 ($1,000 x 1 - 5%)

Discount = $50 ($1,000 - $950)

Maturity period = 1 year

Coupon rate = 5%

Interest payment = semi-annual

Annual interest = $50 ($1,000 x 5%)

Total profit at maturity = $100 ($50 + $50)

Total return on investment = 10.5% ($100/$950 x 100)

Thus, when the bond is redeemed at maturity, the total return (profit) for Timothy will be $100.00 at 10.5%.
