Overview of Bonds
Bonds are a form of interest-bearing notes payable issued by corporations, universities, and
governmental agencies.
Sold in small denominations (usually $1,000 or multiples of $1,000).
When a company issues bonds, it is borrowing money. The person who buys the bonds (the
bondholder) is investing in bonds.

Determining the Market Price of a Bond
Current market price (present value) of a bond is a function of three factors:
1.
dollar amounts to be received,
2.
length of time until amounts are received, and
3.
market rate of interest.
The process of finding the present value is referred to as discounting the future amounts.
