Answer:
effective interest rate
Explanation:
The effective interest rate is the rate that an investor actually earns from investing in a bond. The effective interest rate is usually different than the interest rate stated on a bond (e.g. coupon rate).
It is also called market interest rate because bonds are sold in secondary markets at a different price than face value (usually bonds are sold at a premium or at a discount). That price at which the bonds are sold determine if the effective interest rate will be higher or lower than the stated interest rate of the bond.
