Summary Introduction

Yield:

Yield is the return to be earned from an investment, if hold it for a specific period.

Yield includes payment of interest or dividend but does not include capital appreciation.

Given one year Treasury bond rate is 2.4%, one year bond yield is equal to 4.8%, Liquidity premium is equal to 0.3 and maturity risk premium is 0.15.
