Calculate the dirty price of a bond by adding the clean price and the accrued interest
Learn how to use the Bond Dirty Price Calculator and understand bond pricing concepts
The dirty price of a bond is the total price paid for a bond, including both the clean price (the quoted price) and the accrued interest (interest that has accumulated since the last coupon payment).
The dirty price gives investors the full value they're paying for the bond, including any interest that has accrued but not yet been paid. This is important when comparing bond prices between different settlement dates.
Dirty Price = Clean Price + Accrued Interest
If a bond has a clean price of $950 and $12 of accrued interest, the dirty price would be $950 + $12 = $962.
