Jul 18, 2017 at 16:46 | comment | added | Grade 'Eh' Bacon | "Why would anyone need to figure out a discount factor (y in the equation) that makes the future cash flows of the bond equal to its price?" Because that's the factor used to compare investments of all types. If the YTM of a bond is 1%, but the average annual return on the stock market is 7%, why would anyone buy a bond? [The answer is because the bond is lower risk] | |
