Coupon rate of bond is fixed over the tenure of the bond.

So, the coupon rate of bond after 2 years will be 1.54%.

 

YTM(Yield to maturity) is the required rate on bond which can change over the term of bond based on the market rate.

So, the YTM of bond two from now = Required Return on Bond = 9.23%
