Adjusted current yield

The adjusted current yield is a financial term used in reference to bonds and other fixed-interest securities. It is closely related to the concept of current yield.

The adjusted current yield is given by the current yield with addition of 
\frac{ (100- \text{Clean price})/ \text{Years to maturity} }{\text{Clean price}}*100.

Here clean price is the clean price of the bond (i.e. present value of the bond with accrued interest subtracted).

Formula for adjusted current yield

In total the adjusted current yield is given by 
\frac{\text{Annual coupon payments}}{\text{Clean price}}*100 + \frac{ (100- \text{Clean price})/ \text{Years to maturity} }{\text{Clean price}}*100.
