Pricing a bond with different YTM (at cross sectional level)

2 views (last 30 days)
Dear Sir or Madam
I was wondering if there is a function in matlab that prices bonds with different YTM?. For example:
Bond price= coupon/(YTM_1) +coupon/(YTM_2)^2+.................+coupon/(YTM_n)^n
Thank you very much

N = 100;
C = 5; %Semi-annual
YTM = rand(1,10)*.1;
P = sum([C./(1+YTM(1:9)).^(1:9), (N+C)/(1+YTM(10))^10]);
Or if you have the financial toolbox for precise daycounts use bndprice

To Fangjun /Oleg I know that but I have a time series of bond and for each row I have a zero rate with different maturities so bndprice doesnt work....
in each row i have to account for different YTM at different maturities and I have to account for accrual coupon rate..any ideas how to solve that??

You can still apply a vectorized solution from my example.
To be more precise you need to provide an example on how you stored all of that info.
