What is the yield curve?
The yield curve is the relationship between an interest rate and the time to maturity for a given debt. Typical debts may be U.S. Treasury debt instruments (T-Bills, T-Notes, etc.) or the LIBOR lending rate. A yield curve is normally upward sloping, where short term lending would pay a lower rate (since it incurs less risk on the part of the borrower) compared to longer term lending (which places more risk on the borrower). In general the longer amount of time the lender loans money, the more that it earns as a result. However, yield curves -- adjusted daily -- can vary in their shape depending on current economic conditions, long term market outlook, etc. A yield curve describes the 'yield to maturity' of a collection of similar bonds (rating wise) with different periods to maturity.

Distinguish between current yield an yield to maturity of a fixed income security how are these yields calculated?
Current yield is equal to the annual interest payment divided by the market price. It is the actual yield an investor will receive (instead of what is stated). For example, if a bond has a stated rate of 5 percent, but is selling below par, the investor would receive more than a 5 percent return. If the bond is selling above par, the current yield is actually less than 5 percent. Yield to maturity is the total return an investor will receive if the security is held until the maturity date, which is all of the annual interest payments and the difference between the original price and the principal you will receive at maturity. This formula is much more complicated but there are websites that will do it for you. Try moneychimp.com which has a calculator for the current yield and YTM.
