How to Calculate Bond Profit?

The following example problems outline how to calculate Bond Profit.

Example Problem #1:

  1. First, determine the bond selling price ($). In this example, the bond selling price ($) is given as 600.
  2. Next, determine the bond purchase price ($). For this problem, the bond purchase price ($) is given as 350.
  3. Finally, calculate the Bond Profit using the equation above: 

BP = BSP – BPP 

The values given above are inserted into the equation below:

BP = 600 – 350  = 250 ($)


Example Problem #2: 

The variables needed for this problem are provided below:

bond selling price ($) = 900

bond purchase price ($) = 800

Entering these values and solving gives:

BP = 900 – 800  = 100 ($)
